World Rankings: scholars respond to reputation survey

More than 17,500 academics (31% increase on last year) from 137 countries completed the Academic Reputation Survey. The survey (which is by invitation only for sampling purposes) data will be used alongside several other indicators to help build the 2011-12 World University Rankings, to be published in September, and will also be published in isolation from other performance indicators in early 2012 in the second of Times Higher Educations annual World Reputation Rankings. A video clip presented by Phil Baty, Editor of Times Higher Education, discussing the future of university rankings ios also available.
