The University of Barcelona is in third place in the field of Nuclear and Inorganic Chemistry and Analytical Chemistry in the ninth in the new edition of the ranking by the Center for World University Rankings (CWUR).

The CWUR World University Rankings is the only worldwide list that analyses education quality, prestige of the centres and research quality without depending on surveys and information coming only from the universities. The eight indicators used to classify the universities are education quality, measured by the number of ex-students who were given international awards or titles (25%); ex-students’ professional careers, the number of students who are now in charge of big international companies (25%); quality of the faculties, measured according to the number of academics with international awards (25%); publications (5%); research influence (5%), researchers and articles citations (5%); international impact (5%) and patents (5%).
