thread_title:  list size 

message: A new list has been released, but you have to be a subscriber to access it from the official website.  Is there anyone with access to it? Some updates are probably due.  --Brendanfox 09:14, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: New list

message: Can you please stop changing the Engineering/IT list? Last time I looked at the THE website (2004 version), the number one and two were the University of California, Berkeley and MIT, respectively. Editing a Wikipedia article to give incorrect information that suits your taste is nothing but childish. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Till Sawala~enwiki (talk • contribs) 16:44, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Engineering / IT toplist 

message: Could someone update the 2005 THES rankings into the chart, so its not just a list above the 2004 rankings. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.2.149.70 (talk) 08:11, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: The THES rankings list is seriously flawed in many aspects. Australian universities are over-rated, whereas Canadian and British institutions (aside from Oxbridge) are very under-rated. The ranking methodology is not consistent and comprehensive to rate universities worldwide. A better alternative to this set of rankings is the Shanghai JiaoTong Top 500 list. However, even that list has its limitations. 218.111.50.181 01:35, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Why do you say that Australian universities are overrated and that Canadian and British institutions are underrated? Can I ask you what university you attend(ed) or work at? Just James 10:20, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  I disagree. The Shanghai ranking is laughably flawed in its criteria which is heavily biased against institutions which do not cater or specialise in Science/Engineering. If i remember correctly the LSE (for one exmaple) did not even make the ranking when it first came out which is an absolute joke. I honestly find it hard to accept the accusations of bias with regard to the criteria used. siarach 10:50, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh? Really? SJTU ranking is more flawed than this one (which says Hong Kong University> Stanford)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.69.52.179 (talk) 11:29, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Update the 2005 rankings 

message: Someone added the following row to the table:
199= University of Georgia, Athens USA 20.8
This doesn't appear of my list from the THES, i have removed this until there is proof it should be there. Aslate 17:01, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

message: number 10: "ecole polytechnique" is located in switerland NOT in France!!! And the official name is ETH (german: Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule; englisch: swiss federal institute of technology) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.170.91.146 (talk) 22:44, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: But the ecole polytechnique in Paris is rather better known. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.240.229.246 (talk) 20:19, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: ETH is Swiss Federal Institute of Technology and well known as ETH. "Ecole Polytechnique" is situated in Paris. For more information, you better have a look on the original ranking published by Times. Niaz bd 21:26, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  university list 

message: The official name of "Beijing University" is "Peking University". However rumour has it that the authority has proposed to change the offical name to "The University of Beijing" in 2006, "Peking University" is still used in its offical webpage.  So, I change it to its official name accordingly. Powermac 02:08, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Stupid brits ranked Cornell above the venerable U Penn?  Have they not heard of Penn's #1 business school (Wharton) and #3&4 Law and Med schools (USNews)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.223.224.210 (talk) 01:50, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think its undergraduate rankings, and Wharton nor UPenn Law nor UPenn medicine are undergrad. Meanwhile, Cornell is much mor e undergrad oriented.--69.123.112.18 (talk) 04:47, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: UCL #1??

message: If I click on the column head to sort by, say, 2005 ranking, the results are not sorted numerically, but rather alphabetically, so "10" follows "1". This should be fixed, could anyone tell the programmer-in-charge? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.161.144.74 (talk) 00:39, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Rankings are Great 

message: There are numerous ways to access the rankings without paying. If your just interested in top 200, goto (http://www.paked.net/higher_education/rankings/times_rankings.htm) for the rankings. But if you need full info like top USA, top UK, top science, top medicine etc, goto thes.co.uk and register for a free trial. Simply copy and paste all rankings in a safe place (like Excel or Word, or save as images) since the trial expires after 15 days. If you are interested in the new rankings I recommend you do not register for the free trial just now but wait till the 2007 rankings become available (this summer). This paragraph has been contributed by Ahsan Rahim, Pakistan.

thread_title:  Where to see details 

message: It would be great if the month and day of each annual ranking publication was clearly indicated.  I saw that the first 2004 ranking came out in November (according to your article) but is that the month of every offical ranking publication?  Also, is there a certain day of the month that it happens?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.17.65.14 (talk) 02:19, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

message: Hello - I have created a new Ownership section for the Times Higher Education entry as the publication has changed ownership several times over the past few years and has now been split up from TES Global by its latest owners. Additionally, I have also included a mention of THE's recent moves to enter the for-profit international student recruitment and housing markets. Finally, I updated the Company entry in the description summary box on the right from TES Global to Inflexion. Happy to discuss further should any wiki experts here feel the page could be improved further. Thank you, HEwonk (talk) 11:31, 21 August 2020 (UTC)
thread_title: Addition of ownership structure

message: * What I think should be changed: 'On 4 February 2021, Times Higher Education (in collaboration with Microsoft, Arizona State University, and Cintana Education), announced the launch of THE Campus. THE Campus provides global university educators with peer-to-peer knowledge sharing and resources to help them address the challenges of online teaching and study. 
* Why it should be changed: THE Campus went live on February 4th.

message: What I think should be changed: "Frequency - Weekly" needs to be changed to "Frequency - Fortnightly"
Why it should be changed: The print version of the THE magazine is delivered to subscribers on a fortnightly basis, not weekly.

message: "Interesting" that the first 37 years are reduced to a single sentence. Surprisingly no mention of the many illustrious journalists who worked on the Times Higher Education Supplement in its newspaper incarnation, including founding editor Brian MacArthur, his successor (Sir) Peter Scott, Lord (Peter) Hennessy, Christopher Hitchens, David Hencke, David Walker, Judith Judd and others. 146.90.130.179 (talk) 08:35, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why no early history? 

message: Any suggestions where I can find online a source from 2013 THES? It doesn't appear to be covered by Newsbank or PressReader, available from my local library. Specifically I'm looking for this 2013 article to help source the Burston entry in List of fictional British and Irish universities. PamD 08:29, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
