Below is the methodology used in identifying the top universities worldwide:

1. Peer review of 3703 research-active academics worldwide, asked to identify up to 30 universities in the world best for research within their own field of expertise.
2. Recruiter review of over 736 graduate employers, from regions of the world.
3. Ratio of international faculty to total faculty.
4. Ratio of international students to total students.
5. Ratio of total students to total faculty.

The THES applied weightings to each of these factors to create an overall ranking, which has seen some significant movements in the Top 200 university places since the 2005/6 research.
