We live in the age of data. From market analysis to benchmarking, demonstrating impact to setting strategic goals, all universities need access to the right data to inform decision-making.
THE¡¯s five decades serving higher education give us a deep understanding of the dynamics underpinning those decisions, while our global rankings have helped to define our shared understanding of excellence, and created rich, internationally comparable datasets.
From this rapidly growing database, we have developed a suite of tools to support the strategic goals of universities around the world. We are also a data provider to a growing number of governments.
