Ranking Global Rankings: Information


Another indicator for ranking global rankings might be the amount of information that they contain. Here are 17 global rankings in the IREG Inventory ranked according to the number of indicators or groups of indicators for which scores or ranks are given. The median and the mode are both six.

The number for U-Multirank is perhaps misleading since data is not provided for all universities.

The 13 indicators are combined into five groups (two of which include a single indicator) and scores are given for those five groups.
