The Hardman Rankings

How it scores

Research
54
Alumni outcomes
93
Admissions & earnings
108/535

Research and Alumni outcomes are percentiles among 3,144 universities; alumni outcomes are counted per student. Admissions & earnings is the position among universities in the same country (United States).

Note: It is outside the Leiden data: its research was measured from OpenAlex and calibrated to the Leiden scale (Amendment 18.3), then shrunk toward the median of small universities before scoring.

Research

This university isn’t in the CWTS Leiden Ranking Open Edition, which covers universities with about 1,500 or more publications in 2020–23, so it has no Research Index rank. Its research was measured from OpenAlex instead and put on the Leiden scale (method Amendment 18.3).

Articles and reviews, 2020–23 (OpenAlex, counted 27–28 Oct 2026, full count)
732
Of these, in the top 10% of their field
216 (29.5%)
Of these, in the top 1% of their field
34 (4.6%)
Top-10% share on the Leiden scale
12.5%
Top-1% share on the Leiden scale
1.4%

OpenAlex counts every article and review with an author from the university or its units. Its top-10% and top-1% flags run higher than Leiden’s, so the shares are converted with a fit on 400 universities in both sources, then pulled toward the median of small universities before scoring, as for small universities in the Leiden data.

How other rankings place it

–QS 2027 (not in top 100)
–THE 2027 (not in top 100)
–ARWU 2026 (not in top 100)

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.
