Top countries for higher education. Where to get the best education in the world

Every year Quacquarelli Symonds examines about three thousand universities in different countries ah, choosing from among them those with the best education. Only those universities that offer all three levels of higher education can get into this rating: bachelor's degree and doctoral degree (in the Russian educational system - postgraduate student). In addition, the university must cover at least two of the following areas: social sciences and management; humanities and arts; medicine and life sciences; engineering and technical sciences; natural Sciences.

In the Quacquarelli Symonds ranking, the best universities are ranked based on the following criteria: academic reputation (poll); the ratio of the number of teachers to the number of students; reputation of university graduates among employers (survey); share foreign students(reflects the level of popularity of the educational institution in the world); the proportion of foreign teachers (only those teachers who work full-time or part-time, who have worked at the university for at least one semester, are taken into account); citation index (depends on the number of published scientific research teaching staff in relation to its total number).

Best Education: Top

The leader in the QS ranking is the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA). The second and third places are occupied by British educational institutions - the University of Cambridge and the Imperial College London, respectively. Harvard University (USA) is in fourth place, Oxford University and University College London are in fifth. In addition to American and British universities, in the top twenty there are two educational institutions from Switzerland (ETH Zurich and the Federal Polytechnic School of Lausanne), as well as the University of Toronto (Canada).

Moscow State University them. Lomonosov managed to enter the top 200. Full version The ranking includes 800 positions, including 21 universities from Russia and two universities from Belarus (BSU and BNTU). None of the higher educational institutions located on the territory of the CIS was included in the top hundred universities with the best education in the world. According to the compilers of the ranking, in order to improve their positions, these universities need to cooperate more with other states and increase the citation index of scientific publications.

The practice of education has its roots in the deep layers of human civilization. Education appeared together with the first people, but the science of it was formed much later, when such sciences as geometry, astronomy and many others already existed.

The root cause of the emergence of all scientific branches is the needs of life. The time has come when education began to play an important role in people's lives. It turned out that society develops faster or slower, depending on how the upbringing of the younger generations is put in it. There was a need to generalize the experience of education, to create special educational institutions to prepare young people for life.

What economic development state directly depends on the level of development of science and education in the country, it is well known. This is an axiom that does not require proof. Because education is the most effective remedy society has to face the challenges of the future. It is education that will shape the world of tomorrow. About what the educational systems of the world are, which ones deserve special attention, and the conversation will go below.

20 the best systems education in the world

Irina Kaminkova, "Khvilya"

IN modern world with its close global connections, the importance of education is undeniable: the effectiveness of educational institutions makes a significant contribution to the prosperity of states, along with other factors of socio-economic development.

To assess and compare the quality of education systems, specialists have developed a number of metrics, among which the most famous are PISA, TIMSS and PIRLS. Since 2012, the Pearson Group has been publishing its index, calculated according to these metrics, as well as a number of other parameters, such as the literacy rate and the number of graduates by various countries. In addition to the overall index, two of its components are calculated: thinking skills and learning success.

We note right away that there are no data for Ukraine in this rating. The main reason is that for all the years of independence, officials in power have not bothered to issue and submit a single application for international testing. It is obvious that, despite the ardent patriotic rhetoric, the development of the national education system and its promotion at the global level, to put it mildly, is not in the circle of their interests. Here it is just right to take an example from Russia, which, despite similar problems with shrinkage, waste and resource leakage, nevertheless entered the top twenty and overtook (!) the United States.

In general, development national systems education in the world shows the following trends:

countries East Asia are still ahead of the rest. South Korea is at the top of the rankings, followed by Japan (2), Singapore (3) and Hong Kong (4). The ideology of education in these countries is the primacy of diligence over innate abilities, clearly defined learning goals and objectives, and a high culture of accountability and interaction among a wide range of stakeholders.

the Scandinavian countries, traditionally holding strong positions, somewhat lost their advantage. Finland, the leader of the Rating-2012, moved to 5th place; and Sweden dropped from 21st to 24th.

the position of Israel (from 17th to 12th place), Russia (up 7 places to 13th) and Poland (up four places to 10th) has noticeably improved.

developing countries occupy the bottom half of the rankings, with Indonesia at the bottom of the top 40 countries represented, followed by Mexico (39) and Brazil (38).

The country ranks 25th in the world in science, 8th in mathematics. In the Global Competitiveness Ranking, Switzerland ranks 1st. GDP per capita - $47,863 (8th place in the world).

Judging by the information provided, money is an important factor for the development of the education system, but far from being the only one. In all leading countries, education is an integral part of culture and lifestyle:

not only parents and teachers, but also the students themselves are interested in getting an education, because it is highly valued in society and monetized in the process of career growth;

teaching is honored as a career and has a high social status although the pay may be relatively low.

If your children are growing up, and after reading this article you suddenly think about moving to Asia, take a closer look at the country that is much closer - Finland. By the way, Finland was ranked 4th in 2012 in terms of spoken English. Do you want your kids to speak English? Here is a great place for you to study.

What else can you like in school with Finns:

training starts at the age of 7;

homework is not assigned;

no exams until the child is 13;

in classes, students with different levels of ability;

maximum 16 students in math and science classes;

a lot of time for breaks every day;

teachers have a master's degree;

teacher training is paid for by the state.

If the school is already behind, then colleges and universities in Poland offer good level education at prices comparable to Ukrainian ones - and an immeasurably better material base. Or the Czech Republic. Or Germany. Or Canada...

And what about Ukraine with its 100% literacy? Will she have time to declare herself in the world rankings? Can it?

There are still chances. But only for this you need to learn how to turn the golden loaves back into the usual equipment of physical and chemical rooms, computer classes and laboratories. And in no case do not allow reverse reactions.

Prepared by Nikolai Zubashenko based on Internet materials

The Education Index is a composite indicator of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP). One of key indicators social development. Used to calculate (Human Development Index) within the special series of reports of the United Nations () on human development.

The index measures the achievements of a country in terms of the level of education achieved by its population in two main indicators:

1. Adult literacy index (2/3 of the weight).
2. Index of the cumulative share of students receiving primary, secondary and higher education (1/3 of the weight).

These two dimensions of education are summarized in the final Index, which is standardized as numerical values ​​from 0 (minimum) to 1 (maximum). It is generally accepted that developed countries should have a minimum score of 0.8, although many of them have a score of 0.9 or higher. When determining a place in the world rankings, all countries are ranked on the basis of the Education Level Index (see below ranking table by country), where the first place corresponds to the highest value of this indicator, and the last to the lowest.

The population literacy data comes from the official results of the national population censuses and is compared with the figures calculated by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics. For developed countries that no longer include a literacy question in their census questionnaires, a literacy rate of 99% is assumed. Data on the number of citizens enrolled in educational institutions are aggregated by the UNESCO Institute for Statistics on the basis of information provided by the relevant government agencies of the countries of the world.

This indicator, although quite universal, has a number of limitations. In particular, it does not reflect the quality of education itself, which in some cases can be very low or significantly limited. It also does not fully show the difference in the availability of education due to differences in age requirements and duration of education. Indicators such as average years of schooling or expected years of schooling would be more representative, but data are not available in most countries' statistics. In addition, the indicator does not take into account students studying abroad, which may distort the data for some small countries.

The index is updated every two to three years, with UN data reports typically being delayed by two years as they require international comparison after the release of the data by national statistical offices.

Based on materials from MBC Times and the Pearson project.

People like to make different ratings and classify countries according to different criteria. This usually takes into account a variety of factors. Let's look at such a factor as the quality of education in more detail. Check out the list of countries with the highest quality education! To compile the list, educational traditions and the existence of a system were taken into account, as well as the value of such education in the world and the number of people with a diploma.

Russia

The Russian Federation is among the most educated countries. For example, compared to China, there are four times more people who received higher education. All this allows Russia to take a worthy position in the world, they really provide a good level of knowledge here.

Canada

Canada also made the list of the most educated. Eighty-nine percent of the people in this North American country boast a college degree. People between the ages of 25 and 64 can get a diploma without any difficulty.

Japan

Japan has the highest level of education. Nearly fifty percent of Japanese adults boast a Ph.D. This is one of the states where university education is well developed. Here the highest level literacy: almost one hundred percent of the population is able to read and write, perform mathematical operations and the like.

Israel

This is a country where many people are able to get an academic degree. Higher education is held in high esteem here. Only sixteen percent of the population aged 25 to 64 were unable to complete their higher education.

USA

On average, only forty-three percent of Americans boast a degree. Nevertheless, this is a fairly high level of knowledge. Recent studies have shown that the quality of education in the States is starting to decline. One way or another, eighty percent of people were able to get a diploma.

South Korea

This is one of the strongest states in terms of science, where almost half of the adults received a scientific degree. Sixty-six percent of the population aged 25 to 64 were able to graduate without difficulty. No less impressive is the level of literacy in South Korea, it is one of the highest in Asia.

Australia

Australia has a fairly high level of education, and a lot of people get diplomas, however, there are not many scientific degrees here. Most likely, the reason lies in the fact that studying in Australia takes an impressive amount of time, which not everyone can afford.

Great Britain

In the UK, forty-one percent of the population boasts a Ph.D. This is the country that holds the record for the number of female students between the ages of 25 and 34. Most students get a degree, and not just attend a college or technical school.

New Zealand
