The overall Best Global Universities rankings encompass nearly 1,500 top institutions spread across 86 countries, up from 81 countries last year. The first step in producing these rankings, which are powered by Clarivate, involved creating a pool of 1,748 universities that was used to rank the top 1,500 schools.
To create the pool of 1,748, U.S. News first included the top 250 universities in the results of Clarivate's global reputation survey, described further below. Next, U.S. News added institutions that had met the minimum threshold of at least 1,250 papers published in 2014 to 2018, down from 1,500 papers last year. The last step was to remove duplicates and institutions that are not schools to reach the final 2021 ranking pool of 1,748 institutions.
The second step was to calculate the rankings using the 13 indicators and weights that U.S. News chose to measure global research performance. Each of the school's profile pages on usnews.com lists the overall global score as well as numerical ranks for the 13 indicators
The U.S. News Best Global Universities rankings by country show the top institutions in 45 countries, all of which have five or more schools in the overall rankings. Universities are ranked in their country based on their position in the overall Best Global Universities rankings.
