UW Madison Slips in Rankings

A new report says UW-Madison’s rankings as a top university have slipped over the past decade or so. 

The report from the university’s own Center for Research on the Wisconsin Economy said UW-Madison has slipped as both a top university in America, and a top university in the world. US News & World Report says UW-Madison is the 35th best school in the country, but the Wall Street Journal has it ranked as the 79th best school.  Internationally, UW-Madison has fallen out of the top 50 in one ranking, and is as low as 102nd best in another.  Most concerning, according to the report, is that UW-Madison is also slipping as a top research university, and is seeing fewer federal research grants.
