2013年美国最好的大学是那些?
2013年度《美国新闻与世界报道》(U.S. News & World Report)美国大学排行榜已经发布。美国全国性大学排行榜(National University Rankings)和文理学院排行榜(LiberalArts College Rankings)的头两名和去年一样。哈佛大学和普林斯顿大学并列全国性大学排行榜第一。在文理学院排行榜中,马萨诸塞州的威廉斯学院(Williams College)和阿姆斯特学院(Amherst College)分别排名第一和第二。
The 2013 edition of the U.S. News &World Report Best Colleges rankings is out, with stability at the very top ofboth the National Universities and National Liberal Arts Colleges lists。
美国全国性综合大学排行榜的名次变化不大。芝加哥大学和哥伦比亚大学并列第四名。加州理工学院下滑到第十名。名次上升最快的是伦斯勒理工学院(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute),由去年的50名上升到41名。
There was slight movement right below thetop National Universities. Last year's five-way tie for fifth dissolved, withthe University of Chicago bumping up to tie with Columbia University at fourthand the California Institute of Technology sliding down to 10th. Further downthe rankings, one of the biggest moves was made by Rensselaer PolytechnicInstitute, which leapt nine spots from a tie at 50th to a tie at 41st。
在美国文理学院排行榜中,位于纽约州的瓦萨尔学院(Vassar College)上升四位,和克莱蒙特·麦肯纳学院(Claremont McKenna College)并列第十名。哈维姆德学院(HarveyMudd College)从第18位上升到第12位。巴德学院(Bard College)的排名大幅上升15位,从去年的51名上升到36名。
Among the National Liberal Arts Colleges,Vassar College jumped up four spots to crack the top 10, tying with ClaremontMcKenna College. Harvey Mudd College rose from 18th to tie for 12th, and BardCollege moved up 15 spots, from a tie at 51st to a tie at 36th。
美国区域性大学排行榜(Regional College Rankings)在全美各个区域的排名变化同样不大。维拉诺瓦大学(Villanova University)排名北部第一,罗林斯学院(Rollins College),克瑞顿大学(Creighton University)和三一大学(Trinity University)分别继续领跑南部,中西部和西部地区性大学。
The top-ranked RegionalUniversities—schools that offer many undergraduate degrees, some master's, andfew doctoral programs—also continued their strongholds in each quadrant of thecountry: Villanova University remains first in the North, while RollinsCollege, Creighton University, and Trinity University remain at the top in theSouth, Midwest, and West, respectively。
美国区域性大学排行榜主要针对地区性文理学院,划分为四个地理区位:北部,南部,中西部和西部。今年的排名仍然有一些小变动。在北部排名中,柯柏联盟学院(Cooper Union)取代美国海岸警卫学院(United States Coast Guard Academy)排名第一。南部的海波特大学(HighPoint University)取代约翰布朗大学(John Brown University)成为第一。泰勒大学(Taylor University)和卡罗尔学院(Carroll College)分别蝉联中西部和西部区域性大学排行第一。
There was some juggling, however, among thetop Regional Colleges—schools that grant fewer than half their degrees inliberal arts disciplines and, like the Regional Universities, are grouped intofour geographic quadrants. In the North, Cooper Union nudged out the UnitedStates Coast Guard Academy for the top spot, and down South, High PointUniversity outseated John Brown University. The top Regional Colleges in theMidwest and West, Taylor University and Carroll College, remained in the samespots from last year。
在全美各地大学中,学生债务问题是学生和家长
