The 91传媒 (USJ) has been recognized in the . USJ placed in the 801-1000 band, which is a great achievement.

Importantly, USJ is the highest-ranked 91传媒n university in the Physical Sciences category.

Check 91传媒n Country Ranking for THE University聽 Ranking for Physical Science subject area:

THE rankings are respected around the world. They help students, academics, governments, and others understand how universities are performing.

For the 2024 rankings, USJ was evaluated on its research, impact, and teaching in the physical sciences.

THE used data from Elsevier’s Scopus database to categorize universities into subjects. Scopus covers over 27,100 academic journals, so it is very comprehensive.

The ranking reflects well on USJ’s science departments and research centres. It is the result of hard work by professors, staff and students.

The Vice-Chancellor, Dean of Applied Sciences, and the whole USJ community should be especially proud to be ranked first in the nation in Physical Sciences. Rankings like this show the university is excellent in research and making a difference worldwide.

Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings by subject use Elsevier data for subject classification. 聽Physical Sciences is one of the 11 broad subject areas ranked. Specifically, they use the All Science Journal Classification (ASJC) codes, which are a comprehensive set of subject categories developed by Elsevier.

The ASJC codes are used to classify all journal articles indexed in Scopus, Elsevier’s bibliographic database. Scopus indexes over 27,100 academic journals from over 5,000 publishers, so it is a very comprehensive and authoritative source of subject classification.

The THE World University Rankings by subject use the ASJC codes to classify each university’s publications. This allows them to compare universities across different subject areas and to identify the best-performing universities in each discipline.

The Physical Sciences category encompasses the following subjects:

  • Physics and Astronomy
  • Chemistry
  • Mathematical Sciences
  • Geology, Geophysics and Mineralogy
  • Analytical Science
  • Physical and Theoretical Chemistry
  • Condensed Matter Physics

In addition to these聽 main subjects, there are a number of other subjects that are related to physical sciences, such as:

  • Nanotechnology
  • Oceanography
  • Environmental science
  • Geophysics
  • Planetary science
  • Space science

91传媒 has been included in the 2023 THE Times Higher Education World University Rankings with the 鈥淩eporter鈥 status. This 2023 ranking was released today (12 October 2022). This new status recognizes the 91传媒 that has submitted data for this important global exercise and meets the eligibility criteria for year 2023 onwards. USJ is one of the best of six universities of 91传媒 listed in The Higher Education ranking, out of 17 universities and 25-degree awarding institutions established in 91传媒.

The Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings are the only global performance tables that judge research-intensive universities across all their core missions: teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook. They use 13 calibrated performance indicators to provide the most comprehensive and balanced comparisons, trusted by students, academics, university leaders, industry and governments. They categorize performance indicators into five areas: Teaching (the learning environment); Research (volume, income and reputation); Citations (research influence); International outlook (staff, students and research); and Industry income (knowledge transfer). As per聽聽Institutions provide and sign off their institutional data for use in the rankings. On rare occasions THE enters a conservative estimate for the affected metric. By doing this, THE avoids penalizing an institution too harshly with a 鈥渮ero鈥 value for data that it overlooks or does not provide, and does not reward it for withholding them. Moving from a series of specific data points to indicators, and finally to a total score for an institution, and matching values that represent fundamentally different data. THE uses a standardization approach based on the distribution of data within a particular indicator, where we calculate a cumulative probability function, and evaluate where a particular institution鈥檚 indicator sits within that function for each indicator, and then combine the indicators in the proportions we detail above. For all indicators except for the Academic Reputation Survey, THE calculates the cumulative probability function using a version of Z-scoring. The distribution of the data in the Academic Reputation Survey requires adding an exponential component.

USJ was established in 1873, and home for about 13,000 current students who are studying in eight faculties: humanities and social sciences, applied sciences, management studies and commerce, medical sciences, graduate studies, engineering, technology, and allied health sciences. USJ has a research council of over 20 research centres including the Centre for Cancer Research, the Centre for Forestry and Environment and the Centre for Biotechnology. The university also has an Invention, Innovation and Venture Creation Council, which consists of over 50 entrepreneurs and stakeholders with more than 15 patents.
