Besides Karolinska, UCPH has now been surpassed by Helsinki, Uppsala, Lund and the University of Aarhus (number 98), which is now Denmark's best university, according to Times Higher Education.\r\n\r\n<h2>The cost of cuts<\/h2>\r\nIn a press release, Phil Baty,  Editor of Times Higher Education World University Rankings writes that \"the traditionally well-funded universities in Denmark and Finland are also already seeing signs of deterioration following large budget cuts in the past year. The universities of Copenhagen and Helsinki dropped 38 and 15 places respectively. \"\r\n\r\nUCPH has this year cut DKK 300m from its budget, has cut 500 staff positions, and is to save another DKK 200m before 2019 as a result of the Liberal Party government\u2019s savings in research and education.\r\n\r\nPhil Baty predicted in March this year that the cuts would affect the University's place in future rankings.\r\n\r\n\"In the longer term, UCPH risks a brain drain. And there is no money to offer international talent a tempting salary or adequate research and laboratory facilities,\" said Phil Baty.\r\n\r\n<h2>Decline in UCPH reputation<\/h2>\r\nAccording to Ellie Bothwell, a journalist at the Times Higher Education who specializes in Scandinavia, the University of Copenhagen's drop in the rankings is primarily due to the deterioration in the university's international reputation.\r\n\r\nThe Times Higher Education World University Ranking carries out an annual survey asking more than 10,000 recognized researchers for their views on excellence in research and teaching in their field of study and the universities of which they are aware of.\r\n\r\n\"We can see that the layoffs and the cuts are beginning to have an effect,\" says Ellie Bothwell.\r\n\r\nShe adds that another factor is that the competition to be among the 200 best universities in the world has become tougher, as Asian universities are on the rise.\r\n\r\nTimes Higher Education evaluates universities in the categories of Education (which has a weight of 15 per cent) , research (weight of 18 per cent) as well as categories such as number of citations, international outlook and cooperation with companies.\r\n\r\nRead about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeshighereducation.com\/news\/ranking-methodology-2016\" target=\"_blank\">the methodology<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeshighereducation.com\/world-reputation-rankings-2015-methodology\" target=\"_blank\">the survey here.<\/a>\r\n\r\n<h2>No pattern<\/h2>\r\nAnni S\u00f8borg, Vice Director for Education at UCPH, finds it hard to see a pattern in the University of Copenhagen's ranking position.\r\n\r\n\"Last year we moved up 78 places, and this year we dropped 38 places back, so we don\u2019t put much store in how it goes,\" says Anni S\u00f8borg.\r\n\r\nShe adds that UCPH will look into the reasons for the sharp decline this year, and that it is in contact with Times Higher Education.\r\n\r\n\"We cannot do much more than ask for an explanation as to how they calculate the score that UCPH has received. We can see that we have fallen back on what they call 'research volume and income', but why is unclear,\" says Anni S\u00f8borg.\r\n\r\n<h2>Cuts have consequences<\/h2>\r\nIda Auken, education and research spokeswoman for the Social Liberal Party, sees the fall of UCPH on the rankings as a sign that the consequences of the government's cutback policies are now seriously beginning to show.\r\n\r\n\"It has consequences that the government for two consecutive years has cut back with the support of the Danish People's Party. It looks like it will continue for the next three to four years. So this is serious, as it means that we cannot attract the scientists and students that will ensure that Denmark can make a living doing something in the future,\" says Ida Auken.\r\n\r\nThe Social Liberal Party has in connection with the government\u2019s budget presentation made its own proposal, calling it the \u2018gift of a generation\u2019 to our children.\r\n\r\nIt includes more investment in education, and a cancelling of the so-called re-prioritization contribution of two per cent for education in 2017.\r\n\r\n<h2>Minister: Aarhus has not fallen back<\/h2>\r\nMinister for Education and Research Ulla T\u00f8rn\u00e6s (Liberal Party) does not agree with the claim that the Danish government cuts are behind the UCPH drop in the rankings.\r\n\r\nShe points out that many different rankings are published, and that the University of Copenhagen in August was placed as the second best university in continental Europe on the Shanghai tables.\r\n\r\n\"It's important to me that Denmark has world-class universities, and I can see that Aarhus University moves up on the Times Higher Education ranking. Aarhus University is subject to the same efficiency requirements as UCPH. This underlines the fact that there is no necessary correlation between efficiency in the university sector and placings on the different rankings,\" T\u00f8rn\u00e6s writes in a reply by e-mail.\r\n\r\nclba@adm.ku.dk\r\n","post_title":"UCPH nosedive on international rankings \u2013 consequence of government cuts","post_excerpt":"The University of Copenhagen drops from number 82 to number 120 in the world on Times Higher Education\u2019s new ranking \u2013 surpassed by Aarhus as Denmark's best university.

Copenhagen is the highest ranked amongst Danish Institutions followed by the University of Aarhus which is placed at joint 46th, while the Technical University of Denmark comes in at joint 82nd. Overall Denmark has six institutions in the top 200.\r\n\r\nDenmark has done well according to Phil Baty, the editor of the Times Higher Education rankings. \"It is great news for Denmark that six of its institutions have made this prestigious list, with half of these sitting in the top 100.

However In terms of overall numbers, the UK still leads the region taking nearly a quarter of places (46) in the top 200 \u2013 including seven of the top 10. Anglo-American instititutions traditionally dominate the Times ranking.\r\n\r\nThe development of increased competition is an exciting prospect according to Phil Baty: \"While once students from India or China would have considered the UK their only study option, there is now an exciting and healthy competition opening up, and it could change the fortunes of entire institutions in the longer term.\u201d\r\n\r\n<h2>Major shake-up in the international student recruitment in Europe<\/h2>\r\nPhil Baty believes that international students play a key part in improving a country's higher education system. \"International students are hugely important to the health of any higher education system and the wider economy. Drawing in international talent helps universities to drive up teaching standards, and foreign students add a great deal to the overall student experience by supporting a rich, multicultural campus life for all students.\" \r\n\r\nAlthough The UK has topped the rankings, there is no guaranty that it will continue to lead the way, according to Phil Baty.\r\n\r\n\"This new ranking shows that we are facing what could amount to a major shake-up in the international student recruitment market in Europe. While the market leader, the UK, shoots itself in the foot and faces losing market share over restrictive study and work visa policies, anti-immigration rhetoric and prohibitively high tuition fees, other European countries are poised to capitalise and take more and more of the UK\u2019s share of students.\"\r\n \r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeshighereducation.com\/world-university-rankings\/best-universities-in-europe-2016\">Click here to se the complete Times Higher Education European University Rankings 2016<\/a> .\r\n\r\nuniversitypost@adm.ku.dk\r\n\r\n<em>Do you have a good story?
