topuniversities-scraper
An API to get a list of top universities based on the QS World University Rankings in various formats (HTML table, JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or RSS feed).
Currently, the scraper supports two modes:
- Basic mode (to get a list of ranked universities with basic data like name, country, and link to its detail)
- Detailed mode (to get detailed information about the universities by visiting its detail pages)
Future plans
- To scrape more information in the detailed mode
- To be able to filter countries for a region (e.g. Europe)
