Asian universities catch up with U.S., Britain ? Japan Today: Japan News and Discussion


"Leading Asian universities are catching up with their competitors in Britain and the United States in rankings, measuring everything from reputation to research funding, released on Wednesday.

The top institutions in Japan, South Korea, China and Singapore generally rose in the annual index published by Britain’s Times Higher Education magazine, continuing a “power shift from West to East,” its rankings editor Phil Baty said.

“More Asian institutions are nipping at the heels of the best in the West, increasingly occupying world top 50 places and showing no signs of letting up,” Baty said in a statement."



Seems like some good old fashioned competition is afoot!
