Personally, I do not understand how UC Berkeley is ranked higher than UPenn / Cornell / Columbia / etc. Berkeley is an amazing school, but IMO cannot touch the network of the schools listed above.
Chill, it's a mirror of research productivity, which correlates to tenures.
Two state schools (Berkeley, Cornell) in the top 15. Very impressive.
Cornell is not a state school now get me my fucking multiples
I don't see the issue. Berkeley is a top 10 school on anyones list. Berkely's academics put it very high. USNews World Ranking has Berkeley 3rd in the entire world! Berkeley is the complete package. Prestige+Academics!
Top 10 for what? I think most people, myself included, don't consider Berkeley a top 10 university.
For example, US News ranks Berkeley as the 20th best university in the United States. The global scale you are referring to doesn't make sense at all and shouldn't be referenced. The US News global ranking system is a mess. In fact, I think all of the global ranking scales are seriously misleading. You can't seriously believe Berkeley to be better than Stanford, Cambridge, and Princeton.
nice try cornell
Dartmouth lower than Cornell??
I think its a similar argument to Berkeley. Cornell has prestige+very high academics. Whereas Dartmouth is more prestige but so-so academics. Cornell in my view is more of a complete package. But that's just my opinion. BTW, Cornell is an ivy and is private, not sure why people are saying its a public school.
Everyone realizes this is a ranking from 2013, right?
These rankings are wrong; there are actually many ties (go check the link that was posted by OP)

There was an active thread already dedicated to the discussion of this.
Where? I want to laugh at all the NYU kids! I have been saying for years NYU is an overated, 100k/year school with 0 prestige to show for it. I was happy to see the rankings reflect that.

I thought Alabama was #1?
people still care about this crap?
This is banking you're either a target or not. Get this high school fluff shit out of here.
ltohang, I love how all these trolls ask pointless questions or demean you after you provide a perfectly legitimate link with information relevant to the industry and working world. Thank you for posting, helpful to see where things shake out on the rankings front.
But how exactly does one define "link?" I do not purport to be someone who has the authority to make such determinations as calling something "helpful" vs. not so helpful, what makes you any different? Why is the world the way it is? What am I?
I don't see how this "objective" ranking is at all useful. As someone who goes to an Ivy (my 2 brothers go to a different Ivy), I seriously doubt there's a big difference in education between Brown/Columbia or Darmouth/Cornell.
Still interested by these rankings, but everything past harvard is decided by more political jockeying at this point than "facts". Don't know how anyone could justify Columbia or Chicago as better undergraduate institutions than Stanford.
The only thing I can see when looking at this list is that I could be dropping nearly half a mil for two kids' college educations (in today's dollars). Mind blowing.
The troll has been fed.
There are geniuses everywhere, there are idiots everywhere. Thus the VERY correct assumption that these lists are always asinine. Also, lol @ calling them objective.
