Korea needs to get on the top 100 list

The American weekly newsmagazine Newsweek released its list of the top 100 global universities last week. Not a single Korean school was included among them, a shock to the public here. Among Asian countries, Japan topped the list with five schools, followed by two each in Singapore and Hong Kong.

After the list was made public, several proposals were made to improve the situation, but none seemed to get to the bottom of the problem.
Story


The Complete List: The Top 100 Global Universities
In response to the same forces that have propelled the world economy toward global integration, universities have also become more self-consciously global: seeking students from around the world who represent the entire spectrum of cultures and values, sending their own students abroad to prepare them for global careers, offering courses of study that address the challenges of an inter­ connected world and collaborative research programs to advance science for the benefit of all humanity.
