Top universități 2026: Harvard pe primul loc, iar primele 12 poziții sunt dominate de spațiul anglo-saxon • Newsweek România

Harvard retains its top position in the 2026 Shanghai ranking of universities, with the top 12 dominated by Anglo-Saxon institutions. The first three spots are held by U.S. universities: Harvard, Stanford, and MIT. Cambridge, UC Berkeley, and Princeton follow, while Oxford ranks seventh. Paris-Saclay is the highest-ranked European institution at 13th, with ETH Zurich at 19th. France has four universities in the top 100, and China has a strong presence with Tsinghua at 18th. No Romanian universities are in the top 30, and the ranking methodology has faced criticism for its focus on research performance.
