The Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) is conducted by researchers at the Center for World-Class Universities
of Shanghai Jiao Tong University (CWCU). CWCU has been focusing on the study of world-class universities for many years,
published the first Chinese-language book titled world-class universities and co-published the first English book titled worldclass universities with European Centre for Higher Education of UNESCO. CWCU initiated the "First International Conference
on World-Class Universities" (WCU-1) in 2005 and organizes the conference every second year, which attracts a large number
of participants from all major countries. CWCU endeavors to build databases of major research universities in the world and
clearinghouse of literature on world-class universities, and provide consultation for governments and universities.
