    University ranking IN Hong Kong

    I know there are numerous universities in Hong Kong, is there any published site showing their ranking IN Hong Kong?

    I think the better question is for what purpose do you want the ranking for? To decide which university to apply to? You should take such rankings with a grain of salt. A lot of them are based on metrics like the publication and citation record of its faculty members. That's good to assess research prowess of a tertiary institution. But for an undergraduate or taught masters program, the more important metric may be teaching quality, something not all rankings pay sufficient attention to.

    Likewise, even in assessing research quality, rankings don't always tell you a whole lot. Certain specific faculties in an otherwise lower ranked or lesser known university may in fact outrank faculties from a better known or overall higher ranked university. It all depends on the program you intend to apply for.

    Take the global rankings and filter by country?

    Between HKU, CUHKand UST I would imagine.. Don't know what subjects the others would rank in - if they do.

    (These 5 should merge to form a super-Uni to challenge the best in Asia)

    4
    Lingnan
    Open
    The Hang Seng University of Hong Kong

    5
    Caritas Institute of Higher Education
