Berlin Principles on Ranking of Higher Education Institutions

Authors: Institute for Higher Education Policy

Published: May 2006

Rankings and league tables of higher education institutions (HEIs) and programs are a global phenomenon. For the many purposes that HEIs serve, they have become a part of the framework of national accountability and quality assurance processes, allowing more nations to see the development of future rankings. Given this trend, producing rankings and league tables hold HEIs accountable for quality in their own data collection, methodology, and dissemination.
