Angel Calderon’s (RMIT) (really analytic) analysis of yesterday’s Times Higher rankings is in Features this morning.

He explains where is up, and down and why, plus he points to where the real action is.

Which is not in the top-100, where a DVC R will sell a passing PVC to move up five places. Instead it’s down-list, where universities with sophisticated strategies can make giant strides.

Want to know which universities have made the biggest gains over the last seven years and how they did it?  Angel explains.

And he sets out the five ways to sustainably improve a research ranking.

Really, really worth reading.
