Lund University ranking 76

Studying in Lund University, however, I am really not sure about the ranking of the university in the world. I know there were many rankings of different kinds, though for many times they didn't mean anything. Here I found one ranking list from Newsweek published on its web on August13 – The Top 100 Global Universities.

“We evaluated schools on some of the measures used in well-known rankings published by Shanghai Jiaotong University and the Times of London Higher Education Survey. Fifty percent of the score came from equal parts of three measures used by Shanghai Jiatong: the number of highly-cited researchers in various academic fields, the number of articles published in Nature and Science, and the number of articles listed in the ISI Social Sciences and Arts & Humanities indices. Another 40 percent of the score came from equal parts of four measures used by the Times: the percentage of international faculty, the percentage of international students, citations per faculty member (using ISI data), and the ratio of faculty to students. The final 10 percent came from library holdings (number of volumes)."

Here is the ranking – http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14321230/
