Most Similar Schools Locally

  • Think of Gangneung-Wonju National University when agriculture, life sciences and engineering is the priority: it teaches at the same levels, namely bachelor's and master's, and has almost the same size, at about 9,000 students.
  • Also strong in agriculture, life sciences and engineering, Kangwon National University makes a sensible second look at home; it also offers doctoral programmes, and is larger, enrolling about 19,000 students against roughly 9,000 here.
  • Anyone who wants a second school in the same country with a similar spread of agriculture, life sciences and engineering can consider Gyeongsang National University, and it is larger, enrolling about 18,000 students against roughly 9,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • Chungnam National University works in much the same fields, chiefly agriculture, life sciences and engineering, and it is slightly larger, at about 13,000 students against roughly 9,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • The comparison with Chungbuk National University is straightforward on subjects, since both focus on agriculture, life sciences and engineering, and it also offers doctoral programmes, and is larger, enrolling about 17,000 students against roughly 9,000 here.

Most Similar Schools Abroad

  • State University of Ponta Grossa brings a Brazil setting to the same core fields, agriculture, life sciences and engineering, and it is slightly smaller, at about 7,500 students against roughly 9,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • For a study option in Brazil with a comparable spread of agriculture, life sciences and engineering, Federal University of Santa Maria is the reference point: it also offers doctoral programmes, and is larger, enrolling about 14,000 students against roughly 9,000 here.
  • If this university is on your list for agriculture, life sciences and engineering, Yangzhou University in China deserves a comparison, because it is larger, enrolling about 26,000 students against roughly 9,000 here, and is also a public institution.
  • Guizhou University (China) works on the same fields as this university, chiefly agriculture, life sciences and engineering; it is also a public institution and also offers doctoral programmes.
  • If this institution is on your list for agriculture, life sciences and engineering, Stellenbosch University in South Africa deserves a comparison, because it covers military and finance as well, and is far larger, with about 36,125 students against roughly 9,000 here.

*our own picks (our criteria: a mix between domains, diploma delivered, reputation and size), but obviously too many criteria for an apple-to-apple ranking.

*: without any judgment of the quality, readers are strongly encouraged to check the official status of the exact diploma envisioned as many universities have a mix of recognized diplomas, not recognized, “co-delivered,” “equivalent to”,  “some pathways” (…), can change over time, and can be named differently from one country to another.

 

**: international reputation: is based on some criteria that do not mean much in some domains or specialties (number of researchers, of scientific publications, on budget ….). Our approximate 1-4 scale: 

  1. known locally
  2. known locally and internationally
  3. is listed in some of the world university’s classifications
  4. is listed among the 20 firsts in some of world university’s classifications

***: estimated numbers, based on online sources and/or feedbacks. The numbers can vary greatly depending on school organisation (ex.: school is part of a group, it employs internal staff or external consultants or has public staff without employing them …).
