In light of the publication of two major league tables this month, ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº President and Provost Professor Malcolm Grant has commented in a variety of media about their methodological differences and inability to reflect fully a university's qualities.

He said: "In recent years, ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº has enjoyed some spectacular successes in league tables. We have taken quiet satisfaction in these outcomes because we believe they have to a large degree reflected the quality of ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº's community of academics and our students from around the world.

"We have however, always been cautious not to make inflated claims on the basis of these rankings, as we are well aware Ìýthat no league table can ever hope to capture all of a university's qualities, and that rankings always reflect what the publishers of rankings decide to measure."
