Oxford University ranked first in the world for Computer Science

5 October 2021

For the second year running the University of Oxford has been ranked first in the world for Computer Science in the Times Higher Education 2022 World University Rankings.

891 universities from 75 countries and regions are ranked for Computer Science. With Europe claiming 31 of the top 100 positions and an impressive 82 of the top 200. The University of Cambridge and Switzerland’s EHT Zurich claimed joint fourth.

Prof. Leslie Ann Goldberg, head of Computer Science, said “I’m very pleased with this continuing recognition of the outstanding teaching and research taking place in our department.’’

The Department is one of the longest-established Computer Science departments in the world and is the home to a community of world-class research and teaching. Research activities encompass core Computer Science (algorithms, data, programming languages, and artificial intelligence), as well as human-centred computing, automated verification, computational biology, cyber physical systems, quantum computing and security.

Its research is focused on methods for solving problems using computers and the design of programming languages and computational systems. It brings together world-class minds with external partners - combining rigorous theory and practical applications. Recent research projects include:

• A new technology that will pilot the detection of flood events from space. The work is a first step towards relaying real time information from space to disaster response teams during flood events and could significantly improving disaster response operations.
• Harnessing new machine leaning techniques to identify individual lion roars. This ability, to remotely evaluate the number of individual lions in a population from their roars, could revolutionise the way in which lion populations are assessed.
• Created an AI algorithm that for the first time allows us to see, in high resolution, the Moon’s polar regions that are home to craters and other depressions that never receive sunlight.

Times Higher Education Ranking: Top Colleges In US For Computer Science Course

After a major dip in 2020 in the number of Indian students going abroad for education saw a huge jump the very next year onwards. On average an increase by 70 percent was noted in 2021 and also in 2022. While the drop in 2020 was around 56 percent from previous year’s numbers.

Number of Indian Students studying abroad

In 2022, there was a 28 percent increase from the number of 2019.

Careers360 based on the analysis of Times Higher Education Ranking and information collected from official websites of the colleges and universities, has drawn up a list of top favourite colleges that students look at while pursuing study in USA , for popular subject choices such as Computer Science, Law, Electrical and Electronics among others.

USA: Most Preferred Country By Indian Students

The USA was the most preferred location for Indian students in the last three years since 2020. With over a quarter of Indian students opting for American universities, the USA has maintained its allure despite global disruptions. Followed by Canada and then the United Kingdom.

In 2020, Canada had one-third (just 43,624) students and the US had half (around 62,415) of the number of Indian students than the previous year for education. While the UK hosted 8,289 more Indian students in the same year.

Indian Students Studying In US, UK and Canada (in %)

Let's check the top universities of the US for the subject- Computer Science.

Top US Universities: Computer Science

There were 1,027 universities that were ranked for Computer Science by Times Higher Education Ranking. Among the top 10 universities for Computer Science, ranked in Times Higher Education, six are from the US, three from the UK and one from Switzerland.

As Computer Science continues to be a popular choice among Indian students, Careers360 provides insights into top-ranked universities like Stanford University , Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and Harvard University. We deep dive into the analysis of fees and gender diversity.

For students looking at pursuing Computer Science in the United States, there are options for many esteemed and renowned institutions. The top 10 Universities renowned for their excellence in Computer Science education are:

Top 10 US Universities for Computer Science

Fees For Computer Science Course In The US

The cost of living in the US for all the above colleges will more or less be similar. But the tuition fee for these colleges is what matters while comparing the colleges.

The average tuition fee for one year for the top 10 colleges in the US is about Rs 49 lakhs. However, fees charged by each college vary significantly, ranging from Rs 35.4 lakhs to Rs 68 lakhs. It's crucial for international students to evaluate their budget and choose a college accordingly.

Government universities often have lower tuition fees compared to private institutions. Tuition fees at public universities can be 20 to 40 percent lesser than those at private colleges, making them a more affordable option for international students. Top-tier colleges like Stanford University, MIT, and Carnegie Mellon University offer a prestigious academic environment and extensive resources but also have high tuition fees, making them less accessible to all students. Also, their selection process is competitive too.

Universities such as University of California, Berkeley, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and Cornell University on the other hand offer excellent academic programmes, ample opportunities for growth with lower fees making them attractive alternatives for international students seeking a foreign degree.

International Students in Top US Universities

The composition of full-time and international students at top US colleges offers insight into the academic environment and global diversity of the campus. University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the University of Washington for instance have a large student pool and so the most number of international students as well.

Carnegie Mellon University has the highest percentage of international students, i.e. 44 percent. Followed by MIT and California Institute of Technology, with 33 percent international students. Rest universities had 16 to 25 percent of their students from abroad.

Gender Diversity At US Universities Offering Computer Science

Universities in the US champion gender equality and inclusiveness, more so on their campuses. For a specialisation in Computer Science, institutions such as the University of Washington and the University of California, Berkeley have an appreciable environment and empowering nature towards their female students pursuing the programme.

Impact Rankings

The  Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings  were created to measure universities against the  United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) . The assessment uses calibrated indicators to make comparison across three broad areas: research, outreach, and stewardship. Universities can be ranked in individual SDGs and receive an overall Impact Ranking. To be ranked overall the university must participate in at least 3 SDGs plus SDG 17.

#92 Overall Impact Ranking #17 SDG 2: Zero Hunger #101-200 SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation #63 SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities #37 SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities #22 SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production #80 SDG 13: Climate Action #73 SDG 15: Life on Land #101-200 SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals

Rankings are methods for comparing the quality of universities around the world. Universities are judged by for example their academic performance, publications, reputation, collaboration with industrial partners and the quality of the education. There are several international rankings, each focusing on different aspects. TU/e is world-leading in rankings concerning our cooperation with industry.

Actual position TU/e in 4 international rankings

Leading international rankings

Each ranking has its own focus and methodology. The CWTS Leiden Ranking assesses universities only in respect of measurable facets that are related to academic publication output. It ignores other indicators like reputation or quality of education. TU/e scores well above the global average with the share of publications in the top 1% and the 10% for most cited. The Times Higher Education Ranking and the QS-ranking  assess universities at both academic education and research level. In general, TU/e has been in the top 20% from the THE and QS ranking for years. The Academic Ranking of World Universities  (ARWU/ Shanghai) targets only the assessment of research and not the quality of the education. ARWU determines the position in the ranking, and in the related subsidiary rankings, by looking at aspects like the number of alumni and staff that have won a Nobel Prize or a Fields Medal, the number of highly-cited academics and the number of publications in Nature or Science.

National rankings

The Keuzegids  compares the quality of programs at Dutch educational institutions, among which Universities. The ranking is based on a number of sources, including the National Student Survey (NSE) and labour market data from ROA . NSE results for TU/e can be found in the BI portal, which is only accessible for staff members.

Elsevier Best Studies also compares the quality of bachelor's and master's programs at Dutch universities. They, too, partly rely on the NSE. In addition, they use data on, among other things, binding study advice, returns, switchers and the student population.

UniversityHQ ranks UT Dallas CS in the Top 50 Best Computer Science Schools and Colleges in the US

Computer Science has grown exponentially in the last few decades starting from a discipline in which only a very few were involved to a permanent staple, with a ubiquitous presence that impacts everything from our everyday routines to something that inspires, connects and educates people around the world. Computer Science is constantly growing and changing in how it functions and how we use it. Recently, UniversityHQ released their latest edition of the annual ranking for the Top 55 Best Computer Science Schools and Colleges in the United States. Of these top 55 Computer Science Programs, the UT Dallas Computer Science Department came in at number 45. The annual release of UniversityHQ rankings feature other leading universities in the United States, including Stanford University, Carnegie Mellon University, UC Berkeley, as well as the University of Texas at Dallas. These rankings serve as an excellent measure of exploring where computer research leaders and experts are located.

College ranking is a process designed to facilitate one of a student’s most important decisions. While there are many solid metrics that can be used and relied upon, there are also many outdated or otherwise unreliable comparison methods. The process of determining the best school to which a student applies is made more difficult by the fact that much of the college experience is subjective and tends to defy quantification. Nonetheless, UniversityHQ strives to present a fact-based, objective and unbiased view of colleges so that students can set reasonable expectations, discover outstanding schools, and embark on a path toward their best lives. Rankings can help students make their best decision for college. Statistics like admission rates can help students determine reasonable expectations for admission, and retention rates can help them envision how their fellow students value the education they receive.

To gather the data for rankings, UniversityHQ seeks to use the most reliable sources available. More often than not, they use government sources, which are unbiased, consistent, and reliable. Below is a breakdown of ranking factors that UniversityHQ uses in their methodology for Higher Education Rankings .

Ranking Factors Used:

• Retention Rate: This is a big deal for all colleges. Retention rates show the percentage of incoming first-year students who stay for the following year. Many factors impact this number such as race, socioeconomic status, and whether students are the first in their families to seek post-secondary education. Students decide to stay or go for a lot of reasons, but a low rate of retention may mean that perhaps the school caters to a very specific sort of student or doesn’t offer the support students need.
• Graduation Rate  (4 Year, 6 Year): Similar to retention rate, this number shows how many students graduate in the expected time frame. If a large portion of the student body is graduating on time, then there is a high probability new students will be able to do so as well.
• Admission Rate:  This figure indicates how competitive the school really is. It’s also been shown that there’s a correlation between a low admission rate and high retention.
• Cost of Tuition  This is an increasingly important factor when deciding on a college. We use this number to determine which schools offer the best value for your money.
• Graduating Salary (ROI):  These numbers are often difficult to determine, but UniversityHQ finds the best estimates to help project a return on investment.
• # of Programs Offered:   A student might already know what to major in, but when a college offers a wide range of majors/minors, they tend to rise in the rankings. As many as 50% of students change their major at some point, and with many options to choose from, students can be sure that they are graduating with the degree they really want.
• Online Programs Offered:   Students are taking more and more online courses these days. When schools add this sort of flexibility to their curriculum, it shows that they are seeking to meet student needs.
• Loan Default Rate:   Schools seek to lower their default rates by prepping students for success. This number can be weighed against the average graduating salary to get a view on how students fare with their diplomas.
• Diplomas Awarded:   This statistic shows how many students have graduated versus the number still working on their degrees. An incoming student might be interested to know how vigorously fellow students are pursuing their diplomas.
• % of Students Receiving Financial Aid:  This number is important when assessing overall affordability. In general, while schools’ overall tuition fees can provide a sense of affordability, this number can be misleading without factoring in the percent of students receiving financial aid. useful in assessing actual cost. Despite the higher overall cost at some private schools, once factoring in financial aid, those schools might then actually be more affordable than a public university that charges less for tuition but offers less financial aid.

Below is UniversityHQ’s ranking of the UT Dallas and the CS department as well as a description:

The University of Texas at Dallas has one of the largest computer science departments in the country with over 3,000 undergraduate students, over 1,000 master’s degree program participants, and roughly 165 PhD students.

India leads the rise in new entrants in Engineering, and Computer Science in Times Higher Education’s World University Rankings 2024 by subject

Some of the best universities in the world in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (stem) are in the middle east and north africa.

Sonal Srivastava | Posted October 26, 2023 10:35 AM

There is a greater diversity of universities and countries excelling across THE’s World University Rankings 2024 by subject, but they are still dominated by US and UK institutions. India has the maximum number of new entrants in Engineering with 20 and 14 in Computer Science. However, only one of those universities is in the 101-125 band and the rest are in bands 301-400 or lower. 

The top positions of the 11 subject rankings show increasing diversity, which is most evident when compared with the World University Rankings 2020 by subject, especially in Social Sciences, Education, Business and Economics. Five years ago, only the US and UK universities featured in the top 10 in Business and Economics ranking. In contrast, this year, two of the places are taken up by Chinese institutions: Tsinghua University and Peking University. 

In the ranking for the field of education, five years ago, nine of the top 10 places were taken by US and UK institutions, with Hong Kong taking the other place. This year education’s top 10 has universities from five countries: China, Canada, Hong Kong, US and UK. In addition, five years ago 62% of the top 50 universities were from the US and UK and this year it is 52%.  

Universities from 15 countries are represented this year compared with 12 in the 2020 edition. Universities from the US and UK take the number one positions across all 11 of the subject rankings, with the UK’s University of Oxford claiming top spot in both Clinical and Health and Computer Science and US universities coming first in the other nine subjects: Arts and Humanities, Business and Economics, Education, Engineering, Law, Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Psychology and Social Sciences. Arts and Humanities, Life Sciences and Social Sciences only have UK and US universities in the top 10 this year.

Harvard University and Stanford University top the most subjects – three. Harvard University tops Engineering, Law and Life Sciences, while Stanford tops Arts and Humanities, Psychology and is joint top in social sciences. Massachusetts Institute of Technology comes top in Business and Economics and joint top in social sciences. 

Germany and Netherlands are the two best performing countries in continental Europe per number of universities ranked in the top 50 of each subject. Compared to World University Rankings 2020 the US-UK block is less present in the top 50 in Social Sciences, Education, Business and Economics. 

Some of the best universities in the world in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) are in the Middle East and North Africa while other blocks are more focused on non-STEM subjects including Southern and Eastern Europe. Sub-Saharan African countries do best in clinical and health. North African and Arabic countries focus on Computer Science, Engineering and Physical Sciences 

North Europe’s focus is on Science, while South and East Europe are more focused on the Humanities. South America is more focused on non-scientific subjects. The UK’s overall score has improved in all subjects this year. In the 20th year of the World University Rankings, 1,904 universities are ranked overall – up from 1,799 last year - from 108 countries and regions. Producing the global ranking is a significant data exercise, with input from an academic survey including more than 65,000 responses and bibliometrics on the tally of research papers and citations, as well as data provided by institutions. For this year’s analysis, 16.5 million research papers were examined which is 1 million more than last year. Additionally, 134 million citations have been examined, compared with last year’s 121 million. 

Phil Baty, Chief Global Affairs Officer, commented: “THE World University Rankings by subject provide further evidence of a clear trend, which we also saw in the World Rankings, of the waning dominance of US-UK universities in higher education. East Asian nations continue to strengthen in key areas with Chinese universities, in particular, standing out, as well as those in Hong Kong and Singapore.”
