The 狐狸视频 ranks fourth in the world, behind Harvard, Stanford and Johns Hopkins universities, according to the 2016 (NTU).

It鈥檚 the top-ranked public university in the ranking, followed by Oxford University in fifth place.

鈥淥nce again, these results demonstrate the excellence and global impact of the research produced by the 狐狸视频鈥檚 faculty and students in a range of subjects, from pharmacology and toxicology to electrical engineering,鈥 said Vivek Goel, vice-president of research and innovation. 鈥淥verall, U of T has done exceptionally well in international rankings this fall.鈥

Unlike other international rankings, the NTU only analyzes and ranks scientific papers of the top 500 universities based on research productivity, research impact and research excellence. It categorizes them into six fields and then breaks the results down further into 14 subject areas.

Since 2007, NTU has ranked U of T between 14th and third in the world and first consistently in Canada. Two other Canadian universities ranked in the top 50 this year: UBC (24th) and McGill (33rd).
