World Recognition by Rankings

6

We evaluate our position among global leaders in engineering research and education through a comprehensive series of metrics that include the quality of applicants to our programs and the awards and honours earned by our faculty members. International rankings are another measure of excellence, capturing our performance in terms of research influence, learning environment, knowledge transfer and other factors.

U of T Engineering has consistently ranked as the top engineering school in Canada across four organizations that have been producing world university rankings specific to engineering for 10 years or more: the Quacquarelli Symonds World University Rankings (QS), the Times Higher Education World University Rankings (THE), Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) 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 and is the only Canadian university to appear within the top 50 in the three rankings for which metrics specific to engineering are published.

While each organization's assessments are unique and often distinct from the others, our high standing across all major rankings is one of the factors that enables us to attract top students, faculty and industry collaborators. We are focused on maintaining and enhancing our global reputation in the years to come.

THE is the second-longest-running survey

of its kind after ARWU. What sets it apart

as an influential assessment of global,

research-intensive universities is the breadth

of its evaluation, which aims to measure

institutions across all their core missions:

teaching, research, knowledge transfer and

international outlook. The THE ranking uses

13 performance indicators in five weighted

categories:

Teaching: the learning environment (30%) Research: volume, income and reputation

(30%) Citations: research influence (30%) International outlook: staff, students and

research (7.5%) Industry income and innovation (2.5%)

Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) for Engineering Subjects

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

ARWU has provided university-level rankings since 2003 and 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). In the most recent data, ARWU discontinued the fieldlevel rankings that have formed the basis of our previous reporting in favour of an expanded set of subject-level rankings. These included 22 engineering-related fields, of which we have chosen to report the nine most relevant to our programs (See list at right). In the final ARWU field-level rankings for engineering (2016) we remained Canada's top school and ranked 50th worldwide.

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

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

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

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
