NOTES: The whole bar in the chart on the left relates to the percentage of institutions in the study from that country which have scored for the subject, the shorter more deeply coloured bars reflect the proportion of institutions that have reached the required level to be assigned a rank, the top two hundred overall of which are typically published. In the table on the right the [number] in square brackets is the global rank of that institution for the given subject. Thorough checks are conducted for the top 200 institutions in each subject but where institutions appear for certain countries without a rank, these may not have been checked but are included nonetheless (in grey) for illustrative purposes. It is not unusual for institutions beyond the top couple of hundred to appear in disciplines that they do not operate due to overall reputation lending assumed status or strengths in closely related disciplines.
