英国大学排名的官方排名 英国政府曾每七年左右组织一次大学科研水平评估（Research Assessment Exercise，简称RAE）。 RAE作为英国权威度最高的大学排名，在很大程度上不仅说明了一个大学的综合实力，甚至直接左右了一个英国大学能获得的研究经费多少。英国大学其实并不十分重视各媒体或者报纸的排名，但对于RAE的评分高低却异常重视。RAE评分在学校经费、研究水平、顶尖学者数量上的影响至关重要。最近一次的RAE排名是在2008年。2014年12月18日，英国官方发布了研究卓越框架（Research Excellence Framework，简称REF）结果，其取代了科研水平评估（RAE）。英国研究卓越框架（REF）是英国政府资助机构用来评价本国高等院校科学研究项目质量的一个新的行动计划，其评估重点是科学研究项目的产出、影响以及环境三个要素，其结果将决定未来六年英国各高等院校从英国政府资助机构所获得的研究经费数量。以下是最新的2014年REF科研水平综合排名： RESEARCH EXCELLENCE FRAMEWORK 2014: OVERALL RANKING OF INSTITUTIONS． 2014
