University of Memphis Continues to Climb in Latest Times Higher Education World University Rankings; 3rd World Ranking in a Year
Sept. 2, 2021 — The University of Memphis received its third world ranking in a year as it has climbed in the 2022 Times Higher Education World University Rankings. In addition, the U of M improved its U.S. ranking to No. 147, nine spots better than last year.
The U of M’s strength in the scoring methodology was in teaching and research as both categories scored above the median.
The University of Memphis, Vanderbilt University and the University of Tennessee are the only Tennessee universities ranked among the U.S. institutions ranked globally.
“What makes the University of Memphis’ inclusion in the Times Higher Education
World University Rankings more impressive is the fact that the world ranking and the U.S. ranking had more institutions competing in the rankings this year,” said Dr. Colton Cockrum, assistant vice provost, Institutional Effectiveness, Accreditation & Academic Assessment at the U of M.
In April, the U of M was ranked in the top 4.9% in the world out of 19,788 universities, according to the 2021-22 edition of the “Global 2000 List by the Center for World University Rankings.”
In September 2020, the University of Memphis was ranked among the world’s top universities for the first time in the 2021 Times Higher Education World University Rankings.
In the most recent U.S. News & World Report rankings for top public universities, the U of M climbed nine spots to No. 126 and is the No. 2-ranked public university in the State of Tennessee.
In March, the U of M received recognition for 26 programs in the 2022 U.S. News & World Report Best Graduate Programs national rankings.

And we had a thread on this. That whole global ranking is total nonsense. Like being on the who's who list of college seniors.
Grad rate and acceptance percentage. That's the shite that matters. Being #2 public in TN means about the 12th best on TN.
It won't get better if people lie to themselves.
Blast away at me.
Top 5% Global rating.
I just hope people reading this know that not all of the univ alums are rubes.
.
Academics is for loosers.
Out of the three main global rankings the one I see cited on the realignment board is the ARWU. We haven't made that one yet.

Lately you sure have been making an effort to make posts that go against me for some reason. You conveniently don't respond to my posts that would be considered positive. You didn't respond to SK for saying it was nonsense. One thing I've learned from posting on messageboards on and off for over 20 years is that when I make a neutral comment other people will apply emotional perspectives to it. If they disagree that makes it negative and if they agree that makes it positive when I had no intent of being positive or negative in that instance. As I've said before I try to look at as much info as possible to form the best view that I can. And when it comes to perception and acceptance we should be looking at what others look at to improve that perception and acceptance.
And actually yes I'm not fun at parties. I don't really care to go to them. By definition I'm an introvert. When you add the apathy that I've developed that makes it even worse. Coming here is one of the few things I've still had the motivation to do.

Don't have to blast. You make clear why you come to this board. Not sure why someone like you is allowed to degrade the university like you do.

- Academics suck; improvements are a mirage
- Stadium
- Schedule
- The coach sucks. We could have lost a couple of games that we won
- An expert on the world rankings, they aren't accurate, we suck
- An expert on what is "really important" when it comes to world rankings, those making the rankings are wrong
- Winning games that could have easily been lost are the same as losses
- Beating UCF, no big deal
- Beating Navy on the road, no big deal
- Bowl win, no big deal
- Recruiting at all time high meaningless. Introduce new comparison to P5 programs as proof
Am I leaving anything out?

Well no because there is no Memphis City schools. In many endeavors Univ of Memphis and Shelby County Schools collaborate. I was involved in some planning today for an event we’ve been doing for several years and will possible expand it to Middle TN in a similar form.
National university ranks Memphis academically lower compared to other Universities in the USA. It's been documented by many sources.

Please enlighten Ike, how does Memphis collaborate with the shelby county schools

Well no because there is no Memphis City schools. In many endeavors Univ of Memphis and Shelby County Schools collaborate.
Except the "Shelby County" school system doesn't include:
Collierville
Germantown (many of them, at least)
Arlington
Bartlett
Millington
Lakeland
Which makes it pretty much Memphis City schools.
