LONDRES, September 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

La treizième édition du classement QS World University Rankings des universités, compilé par QS Quacquarelli Symonds, le think tank spécialisé dans l'enseignement supérieur international, confirme aujourd'hui que le Massachusetts Institute of Technology est à la première place, la meilleure Université au  monde pour la cinquième année consécutive.

     (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130909/638188 )

ETH Zurich est la seule université d'Europe continentale à faire partie du top 10, se hissant d'un rang à la 8ème place. C'est ainsi sa position la plus haute dans l'histoire du classement. La progression de l'ETH Zurich est due à une amélioration de son score auprès des employeurs, ainsi que dans le domaine de la recherche. ETH Zurich gagne quatre places pour les citations par faculté, se classant aujourd'hui 17eme meilleure institution au monde pour la recherche.  

Avec l'Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (14e) suivie par  l'ETH Zurich pour  la recherche, la Suisse compte aujourd'hui  deux des vingt premières universités de recherche du monde,.

Ben Sowter, directeur de recherche à l'Intelligence Unit de QS, attribue le succès de la Suisse en partie à sa forte performance dans le domaine de l'internationalisation. Il note que sept des huit universités Suisses ont obtenu  la note maximale pour les ratios enseignants internationaux, tandis que l'université de Lausanne qui ne l'obtient pas, fait un score de 99,4 sur 100.

Sowter nous dit: "Les classements cette année démontrent que le niveau d'investissement est déterminant pour les progressions et que les institutions dans des pays qui investissent fortement dans des secteurs spécifiques progressent, que les dons soient privés ou qu'ils proviennent du secteur public.  Les universités Suisses bénéficient d'un investissement très au-delà de la moyenne ainsi que d'une très grande qualité de vie.Ces deux facteurs contribuent fortement à l'attractivité auprès des meilleurs chercheurs mondiaux qu'ont les institutions suisses, et permettent ainsi de récolter des récompenses.

D'un autre côté, les nations d'Europe de l'Ouest qui proposent ou font des coupes budgétaires perdent des places face à leurs homologues aux  Etats Unis ou en Asie.

Ailleurs, dans le monde, l'Université de Stanford déloge l'Université de Cambridge du top 3. Ceci signifie que les Etats Unis trustent pour la première fois  les trois premières places du classement depuis les premiers classements de 2004. La Russie la Chine La Corée du Sud connaissent des améliorations notoires, cependant que l'Angleterre l'Allemagne et l'Italie perdent du terrain.
