How good are Europe’s universities and how can you tell?

with more than 4,000 higher education institutions in Europe, it is hard work keeping track of what each one is doing, let alone how well they do it. but information of this sort is of vital interest to students, parents, employers, policy makers and university managers across the EU. Each member state already has extensive information on its own higher education institutions and programmes.
now the European Commission envisages enhancing these national databases at the European level with information on university performance in education, research and innovation.
