For instance, research citations can be judged between five to 11 years later.<\/p>\n<p>On the one hand, this should help cushion our pandemic-affected universities from precipitous falls over the next few years. On the other, it conspires against rapid rises up the global ladder.<\/p>\n<p>This makes the ascendancy of East Asian universities, and in particular those from China, all the more remarkable. The top two Chinese universities now come in at 18th and 27th internationally, ahead of Australia\u2019s lead, the University of Melbourne at 29th. The next four Chinese universities have risen more than 100 spots since 2012 to crack the top 75. This is especially impressive given that research is largely judged on English-language outputs.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_55465\" style=\"width: 690px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-55465\" class=\"size-full wp-image-55465\" src=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/WorldUniRankings.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"809\" srcset=\"https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/WorldUniRankings.jpg 680w, https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/WorldUniRankings-210x250.jpg 210w, https:\/\/world.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/WorldUniRankings-600x714.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-55465\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Author provided<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Australia has fared well in this battle of the old versus new order. Long-established universities benefit from major endowments, philanthropy and long-run reputation. Australia\u2019s universities in the top 200 have an average age of 78, compared to over two centuries for overseas unis in top 200.<\/p>\n<p>China has this disadvantage too. But China does have the benefit of a booming economy, which drives top-down investment in cutting-edge technologies and academic excellence through STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) research at scale.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>A measure of the value of international students<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>It can be argued that Australian universities thrived on the back of 28 years of growth, a desirable location, political stability and relatively open borders to knowledge-based entrants. But the standout contribution has been from international students. In absolute terms universities in Australia have the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/monitor.icef.com\/2019\/11\/australian-international-student-enrolments-up-11-through-september-2019\/\">second-highest number<\/a> after the US.<\/p>\n<p>Simply put, the margin between international and domestic student income covers the indirect costs of strategic investment in research, teaching and other areas. Australian universities need to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/parlinfo.aph.gov.au\/parlInfo\/download\/committees\/reportrep\/024212\/toc_pdf\/AustralianGovernmentFundingArrangementsfornon-NHMRCResearch.pdf;fileType=application%2Fpdf\">raise around an additional dollar<\/a>\u00a0in support and infrastructure spending for every dollar won in grant income. And all this while fulfilling the core mission of educating local students, with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.abs.gov.au\/statistics\/people\/education\/qualifications-and-work\/latest-release\">43% of 25-to-34-year-olds now having a bachelor degree<\/a>, up from 34% in 2010.<\/p>\n<p>But coronavirus has laid bare the Achilles heel in this business model. Closed borders and geopolitical shifts have delivered a major blow to cross-subsidisation, as well as to the international collaboration so crucial for team-based research addressing the world\u2019s grand challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Vaccines now offer some light at the end of the tunnel, but it will be many years before the world resembles its former self, if ever. Trust in science and an R&amp;D-led economy argue for a major role for universities in the recovery from COVID-19. But the only certainty is uncertainty.<\/p>\n<p>So expect considerable volatility in higher education. How well our universities stack up will depend in part on how international competitors fare, and in particular their relative economies and resourcefulness. Australia looks well positioned here, but will need to weather the threats posed by contraction, domestic constraints and a challenging business model.<\/p>\n<p>Rankings are not perfect. They do not assess all aspects of the mission of Australian universities and are rightly subject to criticism, often from institutions not doing so well. But rankings are the best surrogate measure of global standing that we have and they are here to stay, whether we like them or loathe them.<\/p>\n<p>As the aggregate scoreboard for top universities around the globe, ARTU is well placed to track the shake-up from COVID-19 as it plays out in our universities over the next five to ten years.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Author Bios:<\/strong> Nicholas M Fisk is Professor and Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research &amp; Enterprise) and Ian Jacobs is Vice Chancellor both at UNSW<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether it\u2019s\u00a0purchasing power parity\u00a0or the\u00a0Happiness Index, global comparisons require benchmarking.
