“I am so proud to see Penn Nursing recognized for the sixth consecutive year. Our School’s ongoing commitment to improving health and health care through innovation and advancing social justice is evident in everything we do—and our students, faculty, and alumni are leading the way in efforts to achieve health equity, particularly for under resourced communities,” said Penn Nursing Dean Antonia Villarruel. “Whether globally or right here in our own backyard, Penn Nursing-prepared nurses are by the bedside, conducting research, in the boardroom, and in government, advocating for a better, healthier tomorrow.”
The QS World University Rankings by Subject aim to help prospective students identify the world’s leading schools in their chosen field in response to high demand for subject-level comparisons. Each of the subject rankings is compiled using four sources. The first two of these are QS’s global surveys of academics and employers, which are used to assess institutions’ international reputation in each subject. The second two indicators assess research impact, based on research citations per paper and h-index in the relevant subject. These are sourced from Elsevier’s Scopus database, the world’s most comprehensive research citations database. These four components are combined to produce the results for each of the subject rankings, with weightings adapted for each discipline.
