Our Methodology
A transparent composite, not a replacement
We compute a yearly average rank using QS, THE and Shanghai positions. Rank bands are converted to their midpoint, and incomplete data is clearly flagged. This composite is an independent analytical lens — not a substitute for any official ranking.
