经常关注排名的同学们肯定都知道泰晤士高等教育(THE)的排名8!华威在2018年的排名中挤入全球百强。而周四刚刚出炉的泰晤士报高等教育特刊中发表的最新排名 – 欧洲教学排名中,华威大学荣登第四位!(跟英格兰一样2333)排在了牛剑和法国的索邦大学的后面!事实上我们与索邦大学的综合评分也只差了0.1分!
这个欧洲教学排名到底是啥呢!
根据 THE 的说法,他们用了各种调查问卷和英国高等教育统计局的数据,以及 242 个欧洲院系的数据,整合起来变成了他们所谓“第一个只关注教学其他啥都不重要的大学排名”!
THE 的总编 Phil Baty 说了:
“While teaching is perhaps the single most important mission of any university, no other international ranking focuses entirely on teaching and learning, placing student needs at its very heart. This initiative is an important world first, offering a much-needed fresh perspective on excellence in higher education. The University of Warwick does particularly well in our ‘outcomes’ score, for successful student progress - but also does very well in our student engagement survey, demonstrating that its students feel stretched, challenged and stimulated by their courses.”
Blabla 一大堆,总之就是说明了教学质量才是每个排名最应该看中的指标!这个排名具体来说有4大类,师生的互动,学校的资源,学生的成果,包容的学习环境。这其中华威做的最好的就是学生的成果这一栏,可以看出华威在学生中积累了非常好的口碑,师生间的互动也是在众多大学中脱颖而出。
我们的校长 Stuart Croft 也发话了:
"As I have said before it is not just today but every day that I hear stories and testimony of how Warwick staff and students are working together to share in Warwick’s exceptional teaching and learning experience."
"I wish once again to thank everyone who helps make teaching at Warwick an experience that is so treasured and valued. I am delighted that this ranking shows that your work is winning recognition not just in the UK, but across Europe.”
总之,校长很高兴华威能收获到这样的结果,要感谢华威全体师生的努力,也很高兴看到华威名声已经走出英国远扬欧洲!
