Classement Shanghai 2020 : 1st in the world for mathematics
Created in 2003, the Shanghai ranking distinguishes the main educational institutions among the top 17,000 universities listed worldwide. It takes into account six criteria, including the number of Nobel Prize and Fields Medal winners, the number of researchers most cited in their discipline (Highly Cited Researchers) and the number of publications in the scientific journals Nature and Science.
The annual Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) has placed Paris-Saclay University first in the world for mathematics. The University’s position as a research-intensive university of international standing was further cemented by being ranked 9th in the world for Physics (1st in Europe), as well as a top 25 place for medicine and agriculture.
