The good results obtained recently by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), strategic partner of the Barcelona Synchrotron Park, by the University of Barcelona (UB) and by the Pompeu Fabra University (UPF) in two of the most famous rankings remind us how good is the quality of the academic system in Barcelona.
 
In the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), better known as the Shanghai ranking, the latest edition of which was recently announced, the UB is the best placed Spanish university: in the 151-200 segment. The UAB appears in the 201-300 segment along with the UPF, the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (UAM) and the Complutense University of Madrid (UC) from Madrid.
 
The twelfth edition of the QS World Rankings places the UAB in 190th position among the over 800 universities examined worldwide, and in third position among Spanish universities, behind the UB (166), the UAM (186) and ahead of the UPF (295).
 
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard University and Stanford University, all of them from the USA lead these rankings. In Europe, the University of Cambridge (United Kingdom) is the top one.
