Oxford University: Top university in the world

Oxford is one of the oldest universities in the world and in 2022 it became the top university in the world for the sixth year running. This video describes the method used to select the top university and provides a whistle stop tour of the main university buildings and the many colleges of Oxford. The approach that awarded Oxford University top rating for six years is the Times Higher Education World University Rankings, but the video also includes other approaches such as QS World University Rankings which rates Massachusetts Institute of Technology as top, and the Academic Ranking of World Universities which places Harvard University as number one. The whistle stop tour includes brief visits to the Radcliffe Camera, Saint Mary the Virgin Church, the Divinity School, Old Schools Quad, the Sheldonian Theatre, the Examination Hall, the Natural History Museum, the Blavatnik School of Government, and the Centre for Humanities. It includes glimpses of colleges including: Christ Church, Magdalen, Lady Margaret Hall, Balliol, Corpus Christi and Keble.
