    • Reputation survey: 15%

    • Staff-to-student ratio: 4.5%

    • Citations (Weight: 30%):  Research influence is examined by capturing the number of times a University’s published work is cited by scholars globally, compared with the number of citations a publication of similar type and subject is expected to have.

    •  International Outlook (Weight: 7.5%):

    • International-to-domestic-student ratio: 2.5%
