Rankin The best universities in Spain
Five Spanish universities
- Barcelona, Barcelona Autonomous, Granada, Valencia and Madrid Complutense
- appear this year among the
200 best in the world
in the Shanghai "ranking", considered the most prestigious worldwide classification of college campuses.
The
Academic Ranking of World Universities
(ARWU), better known as the Shanghai classification, has been published since 2003 and is updated every year by the Jiao Tong University, located in that Chinese city.
The campuses are ordered one by one up to number one hundred
and from there they do it by blocks.

In this 2022 edition,
Harvard tops the
ranking list for the 20th year,
Stanford remains in second place
, and
the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(MIT) climbs to third position in this edition.
Other "top 10" campuses are
Cambridge
(4th),
Berkeley
(5th),

In
Europe
, the
University Paris-Saclay
(16th) remains in the best position, followed by
ETH Zurich
(20th), while in Asia the
University of Tokyo
(24th) leads this "league".
The academic list classifies the centers according to the
number of articles published in scientific journals
-especially in
Nature
and
Science-
, the performance "per capita" with respect to the size of the institution or the number of
Nobel Prize winners
who have studied there or teach classes.
In this edition,
Spain has five universities among the 200 best in the world
, one more than in 2021, with the University of Barcelona standing out for another year as the only one that manages to rank in the bracket that goes from position 151 to 200.
Immediately after, between the 201st and 300th best campuses in the world, are the
Autonomous University of Barcelona
, the
Complutense University of Madrid
,
Granada
and
Valencia
.
Among the Spanish universities that improve with respect to the classification obtained in 2021, the
University of Valencia
stands out, which makes a leap by going from the 301-400 bracket to that of 201-300, and the same thing happens to the
Pompeu Fabra
, which passes from position 401-500 to the range from 301 to 400.
In this aspect, the improvement registered by the
Pablo de Olavide University of Seville
stands out, which in 2022 is among the 601-700 best higher education centers worldwide (801-900 in 2021).
At the other extreme, with falls in their academic assessment compared to the previous year, are the
Polytechnic of Valencia
, the Polytechnic of
Salamanca
, the
Polytechnic of Madrid
, the
Rovira i Virgili
and the universities of the
Balearic Islands
and
Las Palmas de Gran Canary
.
As a novelty in relation to 2021, the
Cádiz campus
(901-1000) and the
Miguel Hernández University of Elche
(801-900) appear in this edition.
The "ranking" of the Chinese university classifies two thousand centers annually, although
it only publishes the best thousand
every August 15.
