A Universidade de São Paulo (USP) – a brasileira mais bem colocada – chegou à sua melhor posição em todas as edições do Ranking, pulando da 127º, em 2013, para a 120ª.

O Brasil segue liderando o ensino superior na América Latina, com 22 universidades listadas no ranking, à frente da Argentina, com 16, e do México, com 14. Todas as três instituições brasileiras no Top 400 avançaram: A Unicamp ganhou quarto posições, ficando na 195ª, enquanto a Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ) passou da 323ª para a 321ª.

O crescimento da USP é resultado do aumento dos itens Reputação Acadêmica e Reputação do Empregador. No âmbito dessas métricas, a Universidade se destaca entre as Top 50. No entanto, o bom ano da USP é um raro ponto alto para a educação superior brasileira, que teve um ano difícil: 18 das 22 universidades perderam posições na lista – oito delas, mais de 50 colocações, enquanto outras quarto saíram do Top 800, e outras três, do Top 500.

QS Quacquarelli Symonds apurou que a situação complexa do ensino superior no Brasil neste ano se dá por duas razões. A primeira é uma série de quedas consistentes nas proporções entre estudantes e professores, métrica usada como parâmetro para a qualidade do ensino. Sob este aspecto, 16 das 22 universidades brasileiras apresentaram queda no indicador, indicando que o país ainda busca melhorar seus problemas recorrentes de acesso à educação superior.

A segunda razão é a pobre performance em pesquisa. Toda as 22 instituições tiveram queda no número de citações por corpo docente (CpF, na sigla em inglês), enquanto a USP fica entre as 500 melhores nesta métrica.

"Embora o crescimento da USP seja louvável, nossa métrica sobre docentes por estudantes sugere que o sistema como um todo tem falhado em oferecer acesso suficientemente igualitário à educação superior. A performance das instituições mais importantes do país continua a melhorar, mas, se a nação pretende emergir da pior recessão em décadas, toda a estrutura do ensino superior brasileiro precisa equipar todos os alunos com a educacao necessária para melhorar tanto a produção quanto o resultado de pesquisas",  afirma Ben Sowter, Chefe da Divisão de Pesquisa da QS. Para ele, o ranking deste ano sugere que as disparidades estão crescendo, e que o Brasil está em risco de ver um bom número de instituições – e, portanto, de estudantes – ficarem para trás.
