[edit] Publication history

From its first edition, in 1971, to 2008, the THES was published in newspaper format. On 10 January 2008 the publication was relaunched as a magazine which continues currently. It is published by TSL Education Ltd., which was, until October 2005, a division of News International.

[edit] Editorial

The magazine is edited by Ann Mroz. Phil Baty is the deputy editor, and is responsible for news and opinions. Times Higher Education has been probably best known for publishing the THE - QS World University Rankings, which first appeared in November 2004, with new rankings published annually. A fictional satirical column, the "Poppletonian", reflects on life at the fictional Poppleton University, a former polytechnic. The column is written by Laurie Taylor.
