📊 About This Data

The Reputation Points (RP) determine the dynamic season ranking, combining the Base Composite Score with Community Votes and Live Event Impacts.

The Base Score is calculated using our proprietary methodology that combines data from three major ranking systems: QS World University Rankings (academic & employer reputation, citations per faculty), Times Higher Education (THE) (teaching, research, citations, industry income, international outlook), and ARWU (alumni & staff Nobel Prizes, highly cited researchers, publications).

Tier assignments are based on the RP score using a gamified system inspired by competitive gaming. Rankings and scores are for informational and educational purposes only. Data is updated periodically and may not reflect the most recent ranking publications. For official rankings, please visit the respective ranking organizations directly.
