CWUR is a consulting organisation headquartered in the United Arab Emirates that has been producing international university rankings since 2012. Initially launched in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, to rank the world's top 100 universities, CWUR expanded its list to include 2,000 universities in 2019. Unlike other rankings, CWUR primarily relies on available data from the Clarivate Analytics database, without conducting surveys or relying on university data submissions.

CWUR evaluates universities based on a methodology comprising seven indicators across four areas: quality of education (25%) - alumni who have received major academic awards; employability (25%) - graduates holding senior positions in the world's largest public companies; quality of faculty (10%) - staff who have received prestigious academic awards; and research performance (40%) – research output, high-quality publications, influence, and citations.

The ranking is dominated by American universities, with eight in the top ten. With a total of 329 universities, the USA is also the most represented country in the ranking. Harvard, Stanford and MIT are among the most cited universities globally.
