In this episode, Sir Eric Thomas - former VC Bristol University - interviews a world-leading authority and pioneer of the modern university ranking system, John O’Leary. Together, the journalist and the VC dissect the polarising topic of rankings, in the context of: the changing student experience; university civic mission; local and international competition; methodology; and institutional criticism. John and Sir Eric discuss how use of rankings has evolved, students’ interest, and investment in student satisfaction giving universities the edge.
