Leading research institutions help Paris, London and Boston to come out on top.
Paris has been named 'Best Student City 2012' by QS Intelligence Unit, a company that compiles annual world university rankings. Paris earned the honour in part because of research institutions École Normale Supérieure Paris and École Polytechnique. London was second owing to the research institutions University College London and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. Boston, Massachusetts, was third thanks to Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, both in Massachusetts.
