Institution names have been standardized to ensure a clearer and more consistent presentation of the results. When a school is part of a university, the ranking indicates the institution (university or school) that received the highest score in each domain, according to the following rules:
  • If the school is the primary contributor → Name of the school, followed by the university in parentheses.
  • If the university is the primary contributor → Name of the university only.
  • If the university qualifies but the school contributes significantly → Name of the university (including [name of the school]). (e.g. Harvard (incl. Harvard Business School))”.
