LONDRES, November 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --



QS Best Student Cities se encuentra disponible en TopUniversities.com/StudentCities

Barcelona y Madrid han sido destacadas en el QS Best Student City, un ranking que evalúa las mejores ciudades desde el punto de vista los estudiantes universitarios. Paris lidera por segundo año consecutivo, con Londres en el segundo puesto, a sólo dos puntos de distancia.

Barcelona es la ciudad líder de España, alcanzando el 24º puesto a nivel mundial, una ubicación que comparte con Milán. Madrid se encuentra cerca, en el puesto 31º.

La clasificación, elaborada por el equipo detrás de los QS World University Rankings anuales, se basa en cinco pilares clave que después se desglosan en criterios individuales: clasificación de la universidad, multiculturalidad entre los estudiantes, calidad de vida, actividad de contratación y asequibilidad económica. 

Se han fijado dos requisitos para identificar las ciudades evaluadas. El primero consiste en que cada ciudad debe tener una población superior a 250.000 habitantes y el segundo, que al menos dos instituciones de la ciudad deban ser evaluadas en los QS World University Rankings. Dentro de estos criterios entran 98 ciudades de todo el mundo, de las cuales 50 se han publicado en la lista.

Este año, el número de criterios ha aumentado de 12 a 14, incluyendo el índice de ciudades globalizadas e internacionales (sus siglas en inglés: GaWC; elaborado por la Universidad de Loughborough) como indicador de la "calidad de vida" con especial atención en la influencia de las ciudades en la escena global. El índice iPad (elaborado por Commsec) es un indicador indirecto de la asequibilidad económica de la tecnología de consumo.

Treinta países están representados por el número mayor de ciudades: en los Estados Unidos (7), seguido de Australia (6), Canadá (3) y el Reino Unido (3).

Los países nuevos que aparecen entre los 50 primeros son Noruega, con Oslo (48), Nueva Zelanda con Auckland (17) y la República Checa con Praga (45).

Ben Sowter, Director de Investigaciones de QS indica que "tanto Barcelona como Madrid lograron altos puntajes generales, con un score de más de 60 puntos sobre 100 posibles en cada criterio considerado. Aunque Barcelona lidera en España, sólo 15 puntos las separan. No obstante, Madrid logra una mejor ubicación en términos de Asequibilidad con 64 puntos contra 57 de Barcelona. Esto, en un mundo en donde los costos de la educación se incrementan, puede ser un factor importante para los estudiantes a la hora de elegir un destino de estudio."

Sowter afirma: "Puesto que la movilidad a nivel internacional de los estudiantes cada vez es mayor, nuestro objetivo es ampliar los horizontes de los estudiantes, haciendo hincapié en el atractivo de ciudades en las que no hayan pensado como posible destino para sus estudios".

Prosigue así: "QS Best Student Cities proporciona a los estudiantes una herramienta complementaria a las clasificaciones centradas en la universidad. Al fin y al cabo, la experiencia universitaria está influida intrínsecamente por el lugar donde se cursan los estudios, sobre todo en el caso de los estudiantes internacionales".

NOTA: El QS Global 200 Business Schools Report de 2013/14, la escala de las escuelas de administración preferida por los empresarios internacionales, será publicado el 27 de noviembre en http://www.TopMBA.com.  Para conocer más detalles sobre la información y las entrevistas de prensa póngase en contacto con la oficina de prensa de QS.
