About Times Higher Education and IDP
Education
IDP helps students and families get the information they need
about their international education options. Times Higher
Education's World University Rankings has arrived as one of the key
influences in the decision-making process for students and their
parents.
For this reason, IDP is delighted to be associated with The
Higher Education World University Rankings.
Each year, Times Higher Education conducts an in-depth analysis
and published these Rankings, listing the world's top 400
universities ranked exclusively on their reputation for teaching
and research.
We understand both the value and benefit of this powerful and
useful tool, not only because the Rankings reduce a lot of complex
information about universities, but also because of the extra
information which is available.
IDP research has found THE World University Rankings is
most widely recognised.
Recent research conducted by IDP found that a third of our
students who responded to the survey said that the international
rankings was an important factor when choosing which institution to
attend.
The survey found that rankings and reputation were deemed to be
the most important factor for students in China (37.9%) India
(36%) and the Middle East (34.6%). Our research also asked the
students which rankings they were aware of, with The Times Higher
Education World University Rankings attracting more responses than
any other ranking at 67%.
