<p>what do you mean with trinity college??

<p>what do you mean by colleges? LACs? Higher-education institutions in general? American-system institution? English-language ones?</p>
<p>any higher education institution of any language.</p>
<p>I think the most prestigious Swedish universities are the Royal Institute of Technology and the Stockholm School of Economics (my dad's alma mater).</p>
<p>some great colleges in Asia, in no particular order</p>
<p>Seoul University (Korea)
Yonsei University (Korea)
Tokyo University (Japan)
Kyushu University (Japan)
Kyoto University (Japan)
Osaka University (Japan)
National Taiwan Univ (Taiwan)
Tsing Hua University (China)
Korea Advanced Institue Science & Technology
Hebrew University Jerusalem (Israel)</p>
<p>a following link has a world ranking created by chinese university (or student, i am not sure). it's very flawed, but if you just want to be familiar with some of them, i guess it can give you ball park name recognizations of colleges worldwide.</p>
<p>but be aware, the world ranking 2 and 20 might not have no difference (or maybe reversed) in terms of true academic strenght and undergraduate focuse and so on.</p>
<p>University of Toronto, Waterloo Univ & McGill.</p>
<p>And obviously the IIT's :D</p>
<p>well, if duh already mentioned Israel unis so I can add:
1. TAU (Tel Aviv Univresity), this one has a great reputaion in mathematics and computer science (my major actually).
2.The Technion (Haifa Institue of Technology), this one has a world reputaion in science, even got 2 Noble prize winners (which is very honerable once considering the fact it only exists for about 40 years, maybe a bit more)</p>
<p>with in Israel the big 3 are: the Hebrew univeristy (Jerusalem), TAU and Technion, all 3 considered the best Israel has to offer.</p>
<p>University of Delft--> the university who wonned the solar race in Australia...
University of Utrecht--> one of the schools who participates in the UC program</p>
<p>Theyre both dutch schools and it's possible to follow the courses in English</p>
