The Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) has been published by the Institute of Higher Education, Shanghai Jiao Tong University (IHE-SJTU). It has been done independently by the ranking team in IHE-SJTU for their academic interests without any external financial support. It has nothing to do with any commercial activities what so ever.

    Although ARWU has ranked research universities in the world by their academic or research performance based on internationally comparable third-party data that everyone could check, there are still many methodological and technical problems. Please read the ranking methodology carefully and use ranking results with cautions. The ranking team is working hard to study the problems and improve ARWU.

    Your comments and suggestions will be most welcome by the ranking team in IHE-SJTU, please email us directly to ranking@sjtu.edu.cn. Never send any comments or suggestions to the administration of Shanghai Jiao Tong University or the Chinese government and its representatives. They should not and will not be responsible for this kind of academic research at all.
