Department of Linguistics cracks top 20 of QS World University Rankings by Subject

The QS World University Ranking has five subjects at McGill ranked in the top 20 worldwide, including Linguistics which made a big jump from 38 to 17 and cracked the top 20.

The second two indicators assess research impact, based on research citations per paper and h-index in the relevant subject.
