Στην Ελλάδα των περικοπών, αυτό είναι άθλος...
Στην 48η θέση ανάμεσα στα 100 καλύτερα νέα πανεπιστημιακά ιδρύματα του κόσμου κατέλαβε το Πανεπιστήμιο Κρήτης, πέντε θέσεις πιο ψηλά από την περσινή χρονιά και δύο από την προπέρσινη. Ανάμεσα μάλιστα στα ευρωπαϊκά ιδρύματα, έχει την 25η θέση.
Πρόκειται για μια παγκόσμια κατάταξη / αξιολόγηση των πανεπιστημίων που δεν έχουν πάνω από 50 χρόνια ζωής και περιλαμβάνει τους ίδιους 13 δείκτες της αντίστοιχης κατάταξης των 500 καλύτερων πανεπιστημίων, με τη διαφορά ότι δίνεται μικρότερη βαρύτητα στην ακαδημαϊκή αναγνώριση.
