Best Universities in France in 2021-2022 | CWUR

5 universités françaises classées parmi les 50 meilleures du monde | Les Echos Start
Extrait de l'article : "« Pour être concurrentiel à l'échelle mondiale, le gouvernement français doit investir davantage dans les universités publiques et la recherche scientifique, analyse Nadim Mahassen, le président du CWUR. En 2000, la France se classait au 5e rang mondial pour le nombre d'articles de recherche publiés, avec 6,1 % des publications mondiales rédigées ou corédigées par des chercheurs d'établissements français. Vingt ans plus tard, ce chiffre tombe à 4,1 %, et la France au 8e rang mondial.  »"

The methodology employed in the ranking is explained in the following preprint:

A quantitative approach to world university rankings [PDF File, 5 pages]

The Center for World University Rankings (CWUR) publishes the only academic ranking of global universities that assesses the quality of education, alumni employment, quality of faculty, and research performance without relying on surveys and university data submissions.


CWUR uses seven objective and robust indicators grouped into four areas to rank the world’s universities:

1) Quality of Education, measured by the number of a university's alumni who have won major academic distinctions relative to the university's size (25%)
2) Alumni Employment, measured by the number of a university's alumni who have held top executive positions at the world's largest companies relative to the university's size (25%)
3) Quality of Faculty, measured by the number of faculty members who have won major academic distinctions (10%)
4) Research Performance:
i) Research Output, measured by the the total number of research papers (10%)
ii) High-Quality Publications, measured by the number of research papers appearing in top-tier journals (10%)
iii) Influence, measured by the number of research papers appearing in highly-influential journals (10%)
iv) Citations, measured by the number of highly-cited research papers (10%)
