The University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> at Mānoa<\/a> has once again been recognized as one of the best universities in the world.<\/p>\n

The 2012 Academic Ranking of World Universities, popularly known as the Shanghai Jiao Tong rankings after the university in China that developed them, lists UH<\/abbr> Mānoa in the second of six tiers, or between 101-150 in its ranking of 500 international universities.<\/p>\n

“Being recognized in this second tier is a high honor, given that there are thousands of universities in the world, and the ARWU<\/abbr> ranks 500 of them,” said UH<\/abbr> Mānoa Chancellor Tom Apple<\/strong>. “It’s notable that 53 of the top 100 are American universities, so this ranking considers UH<\/abbr> Mānoa to be between 54 and 67 in the actual ranking of universities in the U.S.”<\/p>\n

The ARWU<\/abbr> ranks the top 100 universities in numerical order, starting with Harvard and Stanford, then lists universities in larger groups: 101-150, 151-200, 201-300, 301-400, and 401-500.<\/p>\n

UH<\/abbr> Mānoa’s American peers in the ranking include the University of Virginia, while its Asian peers include the top university in Korea, Seoul National; the top university in Singapore, National University in Singapore; the top university in Taiwan, National Taiwan University; and the top university in all of Latin America, the University of Sao Paolo.<\/p>\n

The flagship campus within the UH<\/abbr> System also ranks ahead of schools such as Oregon State University (150-200), the University of Oregon (201-300), and Notre Dame (201-300).<\/p>\n

No university in China is ranked in the top 150, and only seven universities in Japan are in the top 150.<\/p>\n
