LONDRES, May 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

Best Student Cities Ranking 2018 

Barcelona y Madrid se encuentran ambas en el Top40 de las mejores ciudades del mundo donde estudiar, según el último estudio de QS.

La quinta edición del QS Best Student Cities Ranking, publicada hoy por los analistas internacionales de educación superior QS Quacquarelli Symonds, muestra como Barcelona se aproxima a Madrid y ahora solo hay un puesto de diferencia, en lugar de ocho, entre ambas.

  • Valencia también aparece dentro del ranking. Desciende del 70 al 90;
  • Tanto Barcelona como Madrid están recibiendo respuestas más positivas de los estudiantes en la encuesta. Los indicadores del punto de vista de los estudiantes les preguntan por su puntuación en cuanto a la experiencia en una ciudad, así como si estarían dispuestos a quedarse en esa ciudad después de graduarse. Barcelona asciende un puesto en la métrica del punto de vista de los estudiantes (27) y Madrid asciende al puesto (31)
  • Las tres ciudades españolas han descendido principalmente por que se he incrementado el coste de vida y esto se ha reflejado en el indicador de asequibilidad.
  • Sin em bargo, aquellos estudiantes que estudien en una de las ciudades españolas de las que están dentro del ranking pueden elegir entre mejores universidades dentro de esas ciudades. Las tres ciudades españolas han mejorado sus puntuaciones en el indicador de Rankings. Esta métrica mide el número de universidades dentro del ranking en una ciudad;
  • Madrid ofrece a los estudiantes las mejores perspectivas de empleo y asciende del puesto 37 al 35 en la métrica de Employer Activity, colocándose por delante de Barcelona (41, cayó dos puestos) y Valencia (94, subió 2 puestos)

  • Tokyo alcanza su puesto más alto hasta el momento, colocándose en la posición número 2 y consiguiendo en la métrica de Employer Activity colocarse en el puesto primero y segundo en la métrica de Desirability;
  • Melbourne asciende dos puestos y se coloca en el número tres. Esta mejora se debe principalmente debido a su ubicación en el tercer puesto por Student View;
  • Tanto Alemania como Australia poseen dos ciudades dentro del Top10. Melbourne junto con Sydney (9, asciende 13 puestos), mientras que Munich (6, asciende desde el 9) Berlin desciende un puesto y se queda en el 7, por primera vez desde 2015;
  • Las ciudades de Estados Unidos no aparecen esta vez dentro del Top10. Boston continúa siendo la mejor dentro del país, pero desciende del puesto 8 al 13;
  • Las ciudades en Estados Unidos están recibiendo puntuaciones bajas en los indicadores de Student Mix, Affordability y Employer Activity.
