17.2% of its 6,529 research papers from 2020–2023 are among the 10% most cited in their field worldwide, a higher share than 99% of the 2,831 universities in the ranking. It measures research, not teaching. A field shows “not available” when the university has fewer than 100 papers in it.

The Carnegie research level only exists for US schools; for others see research impact above. Co-op / internship programs are only filled in from the school's own page; “not available” means we haven't found a clear statement, not that there isn't one. Graduate earnings (above) are shown for information only and don't affect the work-experience focus.
Partial: no club, team or hackathon counts are published for this school, so these are indirect signals only. Read them lightly.
A proxy based on published figures, not a rating of how fun the place is. Coverage is uneven: US schools have official figures for setting, size, housing and varsity sport; outside the US most social figures aren't published, and clubs and design teams are hand-checked for only a few schools. Nothing official covers parties, Greek life or festivals, so those aren't shown.
