World Recognition by Rankings

World Recognition by Rankings

6

Through a comprehensive suite of metrics, we evaluate our performance in engineering research and education, including the quality of applicants to our programs and the awards and honours earned by our faculty members. International rankings are complementary measures of excellence, capturing factors such as our research influence, reputation, learning environment and knowledge transfer.

Over the past decade, we have continued to strengthen our position as the highest-ranked engineering school in Canada. This rank is consistent across four organizations that produce world university rankings specific to engineering: the Quacquarelli Symonds World University Rankings (QS), the Times Higher Education World University Rankings (THE), Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) published by ShanghaiRanking Consultancy and the National Taiwan University Performance Ranking of Engineering Papers (NTU; formerly HEEACT). Our Faculty also ranks in the top 10 of North American public universities. We are also the highest-ranked Canadian university across many subject-level rankings, from Chemical Engineering to Electrical Engineering.

While each organization's assessments and methodologies are unique, our high standing across all major rankings is one of the factors that enables us to attract top students, faculty, staff and industry partners. We will continue to focus on maintaining and enhancing our global reputation in the years to come.

Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) for Engineering Subjects

U of T Engineering is Canada's top school across four of the engineering subject-level rankings provided by ARWU: Aerospace Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Computer Science & Engineering and Materials Science & Engineering. We rank second or third in Canada in four more: Mechanical Engineering, Civil & Structural Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Engineering and Mineral Engineering.

ARWU is produced by ShanghaiRanking Consultancy, and has provided university-level rankings since 2003. The company also provided field-level rankings (e.g., Engineering, Science, Medicine) from 2007 to 2016. In 2016, ARWU first introduced subject-level rankings for engineering disciplines (e.g., Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering). These subject-level rankings have now replaced the field-level rankings that have formed the basis of our previous reporting. Of the 22 engineeringrelated fields, which we have chosen to report the nine most relevant to our programs.

The ARWU's methodology has changed in recent years, and is currently based on five scoring measures:

PUB ? The number of papers authored by an institution in an academic subject during 2011-2015, as indexed in Clarivate's InCites report.

CNCI ? Category Normalized Citation Impact: The ratio of citation of papers published by an institution in an academic subject during the period of 2011?2015 to the average citation of papers in the same category, of the same year and same type.

IC ? The extent of international co-authorship. TOP ? The number of papers published in top journals. AWARD ? The number of faculty members winning a

significant award.

Below is the complete list of ARWU Subject Rankings in Engineering, with those relevant to our programs in bold:

Aerospace Engineering Automation & Control Biomedical Engineering Biotechnology Chemical Engineering Civil Engineering Computer Science & Engineering Electrical & Electronic Engineering Energy Science & Engineering Environmental Science & Engineering Food Science & Technology Instruments Science & Technology Marine/Ocean Engineering Materials Science & Engineering Mechanical Engineering Metallurgical Engineering Mining & Mineral Engineering Nanoscience & Nanotechnology Telecommunication Engineering Transportation Science & Technology Remote Sensing Water Resources
