The ARWU Shanghai University Ranking has placed the university between 501 and 600 for three years in a row, 2019 - 2020. While the US News & World Report - Global Universities has ranked the university at 587 for 2021 which is many points higher than its previous ranking of 624 in 2019 and 2020. The US News & World Report takes into account Global Research Reputation, Regional Research Reputation, and Number of Publications cited (12.5% each) among other ranking parameters, as part of their ranking methodology. The Shanghai ranking doesn’t consider an institution’s reputation among academics or employers, preferring instead to rank universities by considering the level of academic research they produce and the number of Nobel Prizes won by their staff.
