U-Multirank is a tool that helps students choose a university that best matches their individual criteria. Unlike traditional university rankings like QS or THE, U-Multirank doesn’t publish an overall ranking list of universities. Instead, it focuses on details which could help prospective students choose a university abroad. For example, if a student is interested in finding a local job after graduation, the unemployment rate of graduates from a certain university would be more useful information than that university’s overall reputation.
The U-Multirank ranking compares universities in 5 main categories:
- Teaching & Learning,
- Research,
- Knowledge Transfer,
- International Orientation, and
- Regional Engagement.
Data for the comparison is derived from student and university surveys, as well as international database statistics. In 2016, the ranking compared over 1,300 universities around the world.
