中国大陆高等教育的转变最为迅速
泰晤士高等教育首席知识官菲尔·巴蒂表示，世界名校凭借历史声望、全球地位和可靠收入在排行榜中长期占据靠前的名次。该机构的数据显示，世界各地的高等教育在发生明显的转变，其中中国大陆的转变最为迅速。
Phil Baty, chief knowledge officer at Times Higher Education, said: "The world's elite universities have enjoyed a long period of dominance at the top of the table with help from historic reputation, global status and reliable income. But our data shows us there are clear shifts happening across higher education around the world, and perhaps most rapidly in the Chinese mainland."

他说：“去年中国大陆高校首次进入前20名。今年，这一梯队的高校数量翻倍，清华大学和北京大学双双上榜，并列中国大陆高校史上最高排名。尽管受到全球疫情的影响，但中国大陆高校在泰晤士高等教育世界大学排名中继续提升。”
"Last year, we witnessed the Chinese mainland achieve a top 20 position for the first time. This year, we see it double its representation in the group as Tsinghua University and Peking University both tie in the highest position ever for the country."
He added that Chinese mainland institutions have continued to improve in the university rankings despite the pandemic.
