Not ranked in the World University Rankings
This is a graduate-only or graduate-dominant institution: students can’t apply to it for a first degree, or almost none do, so it isn’t ranked overall. Its research is ranked in the Research Index.
Research Index
Percentiles among 1,305 ranked universities. Rank on quality alone: =214. On strength alone: 220. The Research Index scores research only; admissions, earnings and alumni outcomes are scored in the overall ranking where data exists.

Core publications, fractional counting, field-normalised citation shares. Brackets show Leiden’s stability interval. Collaboration and open-access shares use full counting and aren’t field-normalised. Retraction counts come from the Retraction Watch database and include publishers’ mass retractions as well as honest-error retractions; a retraction is not by itself evidence of misconduct, and the count is never scored.
By field
Position over time
The same method applied to each 4-year publication window. The number of ranked universities grows from period to period, so position is shown as a share of the field.
How other rankings place it
Other rankings are cited for comparison. The Research Index measures research only; QS and THE also use reputation surveys and figures universities submit, and ARWU counts prize winners and total output.
