The University of Iowa ranks 93 in national universities, and Iowa State enters the 115, respectively. The criteria for ranking the positions are different at the global and national level.
University of Iowa spokesman Steve Schmadeke said in an email to the Press-Citizen that the school is focusing more on its global standing.
“Because the global rankings focus on such a narrow area (one that doesn't consider access, success or student outcomes) and have such vague criteria, the university doesn't place a high emphasis on them,” Schmadeke said. “In contrast, US News compiles all of its own data for its Best Colleges and Best Graduate Schools rankings, which rely heavily on student- and school-specific data, such as admissions test scores , graduation rates, retention rates, class sizes and financial resources”.
The Global University Report relies heavily on academic reputation surveys obtained by Clarivate, a publicly traded British-American analytics company, according to methodology guide. Other lists are sourced directly from US News and World Report.
