Times Higher Education World University Rankings
Times Higher Education has been known for publishing the annual Times Higher Education–QS World University Rankings, which first appeared in November 2004.
On 30 October 2009, Times Higher Education broke with QS and signed an agreement with Thomson Reuters to provide the data for its annual World Rankings. The magazine developed a new rankings methodology in consultation with its readers and its editorial board. Thomson Reuters collects and analyses the data used to produce the rankings on behalf of Times Higher Education. The results have been published annually since autumn 2010. QS, which collected and analysed the rankings data for the past six years, no longer has any involvement with Times Higher Education’s World University Rankings.

No society can long sustain itself unless its members have learned the sensitivities, motivations, and skills involved in assisting and caring for other human beings.”
