Motivation
University ranking is always one consideration for to-be applicants. There is a certain prestige in having a better ranking, and universities generally work towards having better standing. According to Kaggle, "Ranking universities is a difficult, political, and controversial practice."
Through this visual analytics project, we look to analyse the world distribution of these universities, its attributes, rankings over time, and seek to draw insights from them.
This would also help parents, to-be applicants in their research for making informed decision in selecting their dream universities to pursue their higher education. 3 different sets of available university rankings are used in this visualizations. This would serve as an one stop-shop for them, instead of them scurrying about different websites and resources.
