The science of choosing where to study

Link: The science of choosing where to study

What’s the best undergraduate physics course in the country? A pretty simple question, no?


And a lot of people think they can tell you the answer. That’s why we have university league tables (such as the THE magazine World University Rankings that came out recently) and other guides that tell you which universities and which courses at which universities are the best.


The UK government is hoping to make university choices even easier, with the development of the Key Information Set, which will gather together several different pieces of data, such as essential stats about courses, the cost of accommodation and employment figures, from a range of surveys and make them all widely available.
