Wu Shulian is an individual who created and published by himself the rankings for universities in China. Wu Shulian's ranking has caused significant controversy due to his excessive business operations behind the rankings and for-profit indicator system design of the rankings. The publication of the rankings has been criticized by many Chinese media,including Xinhua News Agency,People's Daily,and Guangming Daily. The Ministry of Education of China strongly opposed the university rankings as it was based on the payment of "fees." [1] [2] [3]
The annual ranking has been continuously released since 1996. Top 100 universities out of 2,236 colleges and universities (general/integrated ranking) since 2002 are as below,as well as 1996 ranking.
Notes:
In 2009,the leader of this university ranking program,Mr. Wu Shulian,was reported to have been involved in a fee-for-ranking scandal,involving universities being able to pay money to the ranking program in order to boost their rankings. [5] Consequently,the creditability of his ranking came under criticism. The Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China strongly opposes all university rankings,especially those based on payment of “fees”,a ministry spokeswoman Xu Mei said.
A study by an anonymous group from the Chinese University of Science and Technology showed that California Institute of Technology would fail to rank on the Chinese university rankings if calculated by Wu Shulian's ranking standard,which was considered ridiculous due to that university's international reputation as a leading research institution. [6] This widespread controversy has greatly affected the credit of this ranking program and has frequently been reported on by the media. [7] [8] Wu Shuliang officially responded with paper in Higher Education Development and Evaluation [9] [10] addressing several mistakes made by the study,including failure to correctly use the ranking method,failure to show the calculation process,meaning that the calculations cannot be repeated,inappropriately publishing classified data from the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China,inappropriate use of unavailable/non-equivalent indices/scores for California Institute of Technology constituting 78.79% of total indices/scores. [11] Wu Shuliang's paper shows California Institute of Technology clearly ranks much higher than any of Chinese Universities using his published method with proper treatment.
