相信有不少家長都考慮讓子女到英國留學,英國向來是香港學生留學的首選國家,而有不少精打細算的家長早已準備好一筆「大學基金」讓子女到海外留學。去年英國受公投脫歐影響,港元兌英鎊匯率跌至歷史新低,因此香港學生現在到英國留學的所需學費及生活費用較以往學生的相對便宜。

 

大學排名的重要性

泰晤士高等教育世界大學排名Times Higher Education World University Rankings(THE) 早於2004年成立,及後於2009年開始獨立發表世界綜合及學科排名。為得到更準確及公平的數據,THE委託了專業的獨立審計公司負責評核。THE的計分準則是根據一套系統嚴格地計算,以五大指標全面、均衡地比較各院校及學科,當中的評核部分包括研究及教學質素等。

以下為五個計分的指標:

  • 教學(學習環境)Teaching (The Learning Environment)
  • 研究(數量,收入和聲譽)Research (Volume, Income and Reputation)
  • 引用(研究影響)Citations (Research Influence)
  • 國際展望(員工,學生和研究)International Outlook (Staff, Students and Research)
  • 行業收入(知識轉移)Industry Income (Knowledge Transfer)
