Times Higher Education (THE) is a London based ruling education publication of the United Kingdom. Previously it was known as Times Higher Education Supplement (THE). From 1991 to 2008 it used to serve as a newspaper that mainly published higher education-related topics. On 10th January 2008 Times Higher Education (THE) started its new journey as a weekly magazine. Now, it serves the world of education by publishing The World University Rankings and Awards. The 2020 Times Higher Education announced the nominations in several categories, with the most prestigious category for the University of the Year 2020. For those who do not know, the Times Higher Education Awards is the Oscars of higher education in the United Kingdom. It was first started in 2005 and arranged an overseas event for the first time in 2019. Every year hundreds of institutions participate here. They get ranks and respect for any individual marvellous achievement, or team works, academics and researcher excellence, professional supports, leadership roles, etc. The recent awards show took place on November 26, 2020. However, because of COVID-19, the awards show was held virtually. When choosing and awarding nominees, the Times Higher Education chooses an educational institution based on teaching, research, access, and evidence of innovative and imaginative initiatives they have introduced.
