Nice Video, good Information for international students for higher studies

[univ-info]

That's a good video. Keep up the good work.

British ranking has Britain with second most - sounds about right - Imperial College #7 - yeah that sounds about right - Manchester 27th - sure that is not stretching it at all

Where are the prestigious italian universities like polytecnico di Milano la sapienza of Rome the university of bologna SISA la scuola normale superiore di pisa and polytecnico di torino ?

[yomilala]

The emblem in the 99th place belongs to an university in Mexico 😂🤔

[nidronbelfadi]

Very rediculous ranking.completly wrong.

International Student Olympiads are actually the only objective tool for comparing the competitiveness of university students at the global level. Unlike school education, there is no global student assessment system like PISA, ILSA or PIRLS.

Ranking of universities by number of weighted wins at international student olympiads:

1. Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (Russia) - 13.40 points
2. University of Warsaw (Poland) - 12.06
3. Saint Petersburg State University (Russia) - 10.90
4. Lomonosov Moscow State University (Russia) - 10.65
5. ITMO University (Russia) - 9.50
6. University of Amsterdam (Netherlands) - 9.30
7. University of Zagreb (Croatia) - 8.90
8. Shanghai Jiao Tong University (China) - 8.53
9. Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (Ukraine) - 8.50
10. Jagiellonian University in Krakow (Poland) - 7.46
11. Novosibirsk State University (Russia) - 6.51
12. Comenius University Bratislava (Slovakia) - 6.40
13. National Research University Higher School of Economics (HSE) (Russia) - 6.20
14. Charles University (Czech Republic) - 6.10
15. Ghent University (Belgium) - 6.00

When evaluating the success of students' performance at the Olympiads using a weighted score, not only the number of victories of students and student teams is taken into account, but also the level of competition at each of the Olympiads. The advantage is given to the universities that took part in the Olympiads with the widest country coverage.

The largest Olympiad is the ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC). It has the widest geographical coverage, with students from over 100 countries taking part. Over the past 10 years, universities from Russia have won this Olympiad and once won a university from China.


MIPT, 2 times won prizes at the ICPC Programming Olympiad, and at the IMC Mathematical Olympiad for 5 years, its students received 38 awards. St. Petersburg State University, which took third place, has as many as 4 victories on ICPC for 5 years. The runner-up Warsaw University won prizes at ICPC all 5 years in a row. Of the 15 universities represented, only three do not have a single victory at the ICPC: the University of Amsterdam, Novosibirsk State University and Ghent University, however, the number of awards received by their students at the IMC is extremely high.

Universities are the most successful in information technology and mathematics Olympiads, primarily ICPC and IMC: Moscow State University. M. V. Lomonosov, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, St. Petersburg State University (Russia); University of Amsterdam (Netherlands); Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv (Ukraine); Ghent University (Belgium) and Zagreb University (Croatia).

Universities most successful in natural sciences and engineering Olympiads: University of Toronto (Canada); Nanjing University and Xi'an Chiao University National University of Singapore; Georgia Institute of Technology and Washington University in St. Louis (USA); Autonomous University of Barcelona (Spain) and University of Liverpool (UK). Students from the University of Singapore have also repeatedly won prizes in various international humanitarian Olympiads, and students from both Chinese universities have won The Mathematical Contest in Modeling Olympiad in mathematical modeling.

The most stable position is occupied by Shanghai Jiaotong University (China), Warsaw University and Jagiellonian University (Poland) - students of these universities have repeatedly won awards both in the field of information technology and at mathematical and natural science Olympiads.

If we consider the victories of students at international Olympiads on a national scale, it turns out that the most successful Olympiad university community in the USA, Germany and the UK - their universities have received awards in all four areas of knowledge over 5 years. Most of the universities in these countries, however, have victories in only one of the considered student Olympiads. The exceptions are Cambridge, Harvard and Pennsylvania universities - students of these universities have won awards at four different Olympiads in 5 years; University of Glasgow, UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon University, University of Colorado at Boulder (winning three different Olympiads) and Yale University, which has won two Olympiads. Students from the universities of Singapore, Hong Kong, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Argentina and China became winners and prize-winners of Olympiads in three out of four areas, students from universities in another 18 countries - in two out of four.
