Correlation Analysis on Domestic and Foreign University Rankings: an Empirical Study of China' s Forty Universities' Sequence in the Four Major Rankings

Based on the sequence and ranking fluctuations of China＇s forty domestic universities both in QS Asian university rankings and the three domestic ones,a correlation analysis on the QS Asian university rankings and three domestic universities＇ rankings is carried out by the means of software SPSS.The results shows that although the index systems of four universities＇ rankings are different,there is a positive correlation between QS Asian university rankings and that of the three domestic ones,and there is also an extremely significant positive correlation among the three domestic ones.The evaluation index system of QS university rankings shows a new evaluation perspective,but the room for improvement still exists.The multiple evaluation index systems reflect the reality of higher education diversity better than that of single ones;therefore,to objectively reflect the comprehensive strength of a university,a comparative analysis of multi-dimensional evaluation is prerequisite.
