The?Times 中国A片?World University Rankings?2019 arts and humanities subject ranking includes a wide range of narrower subject areas.
The subjects used to create this ranking are:
- Art, performing arts and design
- Languages, literature and linguistics
- History, philosophy and theology
- Architecture
- Archaeology
Different weights and measures
The subject tables employ the same range of?13 performance indicators?used in the overall?World University Rankings 2019, brought together with scores provided under five categories.
However, the overall methodology is carefully recalibrated for each subject, with the weightings changed to suit the individual fields.
The weightings for the arts and humanities ranking are:
- Teaching: the learning environment
37.4 per cent? - Research: volume, income and reputation
37.6 per cent? - Citations: research influence
15 per cent? - International outlook: staff, students and research
7.5 per cent? - Industry income: innovation
2.5 per cent
Criteria
Two criteria are included in the THE subject rankings: a publication threshold by discipline and an academic staff* threshold by discipline.
No institution can be included in the overall World University Rankings unless it?has published a minimum of 1,000 research papers over the five years that we examine.
For the 11 subject tables, the publication thresholds are set differently. For arts and humanities, the threshold drops to 250 papers published in this discipline over the past five years.
There is also an academic staff criterion. Up until the 2018 subject rankings, we expected an institution to have at least 5 per cent of its academic staff working in the arts and humanities discipline in order to include it in the subject table.
For the 2019 Subject Rankings, we have made a small adjustment in the staff eligibility criterion. An institution needs a minimum proportion or an absolute number of staff in this discipline in order to be included in the subject ranking.
For arts and humanities, we expect an institution to have at least 5 per cent of its academic staff in the arts and humanities discipline or at least 50 academic staff in the discipline.
*Academic staff is defined as the full-time equivalent number of staff employed in an academic post, for example, lecturer, reader, professor.?
