缅北强奸

Changes in methodology highlight strength in international character of students, faculty

缅北强奸 in Montreal, Quebec, has jumped from 35th to 28th place in the widely respected Times Higher Education World University Rankings for 2011. Earlier this year, the University placed 17th in the QS world rankings, up from 19th the previous year.

鈥淭hese strong results show that 缅北强奸 continues to be regarded as one of the best universities in the world,鈥� said Principal and Vice-Chancellor Heather Munroe-Blum. 鈥淲e are gratified to be thought of so highly and we continue to strive for the excellence in our academic and research missions that will maintain these high standings.

鈥淩ankings are one among many tools that prospective students, faculty and staff use when evaluating their place of work or study, and while different rankings measure different aspects of a university鈥檚 performance, a consistently high standing across a variety of rankings and over several years is a solid indicator of a university鈥檚 quality.

鈥溍灞鼻考� has demonstrated a consistently high level of achievement, of which we are all very proud,鈥� Prof. Munroe-Blum added.

The University has placed among the top 25 universities in the world for the eighth consecutive year in the QS rankings. Two years ago, QS and Times Higher went their separate ways, and the new THE rankings were created. This is 缅北强奸鈥檚 second ranking since then.

The THE rankings use 13 indicators across five broad areas of activity: teaching, industry income, citations, research and international outlook.

One of the changes made to the THE methodology for this year places greater emphasis on a university鈥檚 international outlook as well as the proportion of international students and faculty at each institution. Here, 缅北强奸 shines. About 20 per cent of our students are international, the highest of any research university in Canada. And in renewing our faculty since 2000, we have hired 1,002 new tenure-track professors, of whom 586, or nearly 60 per cent, were recruited from outside Canada.

鈥淥ur commitment to international collaboration and an international outlook is steadfast,鈥� Prof. Munroe-Blum said. 鈥淲e are better able to prepare our students to live and work in an increasingly globalized society, where research and interaction will increasingly take place across borders, where different cultures and backgrounds will come together to exchange ideas and experiences in shaping tomorrow鈥檚 world.鈥�
