the world's most influential universities
from a post at ejmr:
http://www.econjobrumors.com/topic/world-most-influential-universites-on-wikipedia
this ranking, I think, is based on the number of citations of each university in wikipedia. the age of the university is likely to have been a factor, but not overwhelmingly so, because some relatively young universities are in the top 20.

not surprisingly, I believe, for these reasons:SUloCHana wrote:Lots of American universities on the list.
- they have the most resources - to acquire competent faculty from everywhere in the world, and physical resources, including well-equipped labs, libraries, and studios;
- they have the freest and most open intellectual environment;
- they bring together the best students from all over the world, especially for graduate work;
- they value research and new knowledge.

But maybe it wasn't their influence on you. You managed to become that all by yourself. And a little help from your religion.

So only 3 state universities are influential - Berkeley, UCLA, and Michigan.
I think much of the ranking shyt is reinforcing the same old "perceptions" through convenient criteria. Private is good and public is bad. How else once can justify NYU at #20? It is almost a shytty university.

Yeah, they don't include polytechnic colleges like the IITs.swapna wrote:from a post at ejmr:

Seriously, the reasons you listed in your other post on the thread are inter-related; they influence each other. Academic culture is not easy to build and sustain. Those that manage to do both on a long-term basis must be doing something right. Indian institutions, quite appropriately, can't be on the list.
