WURI World University Innovation 2026

- 도서 개요

World university rankings measure what universities have accumulated.

WURI measures what they do.

The difference is the unit of assessment. WURI evaluates programs, not

institutions — so a single well-designed practice can place a small

university alongside the largest.

The 2026 edition draws on 13,211 programs from 1,927 universities in 96

countries, reviewed by 301 university presidents and senior academics.

It identifies where innovation is taking hold in higher education: three

structural shifts, ten strategic trends, regional patterns, and 100

university profiles.

WHAT IS INSIDE

- The Global Top 500 and Top 100 rankings across 24 innovation categories

- Patterns in the 2026 results: geography, engagement, and performance

- Innovation intelligence: three meta-shifts and ten strategic trends

- 100 university profiles, each analyzed through a consistent four-dimension

framework of Challenge, Implementation, Outcomes, and Future Vision

- The WURI three-axis framework and evaluation methodology

Its finding is blunt. What separates the leaders is rarely budget.

It is design.

For everyone who decides what a university does next.
