"So, if you want to know which universities provide the finest education not just in the UK but across the planet, look to Times Higher Education (THE), which has just unveiled its World University Ranking 2026. It ranks more than 2,000 institutions from 155 countries and territories based on five broad categories: teaching, research environment, research quality, industry and international outlook."
"Imperial College London was the highest ranked London institution and the only one included in the top 10. After dropping down to number nine in last year's ranking, the university regained its number eight spot this year. Imperial scored 94.7 out of a possible 100 points, doing particularly well in the 'research environment' and 'international outlook' fields."
"The next London-based uni on the league table was University College London (UCL), which came in at number 22. THE awarded it an overall score of 87.5 out of 100 and its best performances were also in the research quality and international outlook categories (97.6 and 97.5 out of 100 respectively). King's College London was the city's third best performing uni, landing in 38th with a score of 78.7 out of 100."
