Times Higher Education¡¯s 2020 global Academic Reputation Survey has launched.

The annual survey of scholars, which is carried out in partnership with Elsevier and garners?about 10,000 responses each year, will help to fuel?THE¡¯s series of 2021 rankings.

The survey is invitation-only and is distributed to reflect the actual representation of scholars across countries, based on the latest United Nations data. It is also evenly spread across academic disciplines and is available in 14 languages.

In the survey, scholars are questioned at the level of their specific subject discipline and are asked to name up to 15 universities that they believe are the best in research and teaching in general, and up to 15 universities that they believe are the best in research and teaching based on their own experience. The survey will close at the end of February 2020.
