Berkeley shines in ‘Times Higher Ed’ reputation rankings

By Public Affairs

Once again, Times Higher Education has recognized UC Berkeley as one of the “elite six” world universities in its 2015 reputation rankings, which were released today (Wednesday, March 11).

This is just the fifth year of the reputation rankings, and Berkeley has placed in the “elite six” every year, along with Harvard, MIT, Cambridge, Oxford and Stanford. All six scored far higher than the other universities by Times Higher Education, the United Kingdom’s leading educational news publication. The rankings are based on a survey of more than 10,000 academics worldwide, and are separate from THE‘s annual World University Rankings, which come out in the fall.

Berkeley ranked sixth with a score of 60, far ahead of the next ranked university, Princeton, which scored 35.
