Every year the Times Higher Education releases its World University Rankings, listing the top universities in the world. The performance report lists the top 1,000 universities, judging them across all of their core missions: teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook. 

The 2018 list uncovered a few surprises. For the first time, the list is led by two UK universities. The University of Oxford tops the list, and the University of Cambridge jumped from 4th to 2nd place. European institutions occupy half of the top 200 spots. Another notable trend is the continued rise of China.
