Iraq's biggest university has entered the Times Higher Education World University Rankings for the first time. The University of Baghdad, emerging from Iraq's conflicts, has appeared in the rankings of the top 1,250 research universities around the world. It was praised for building up international academic partnerships. Oxford University is in first place for a third consecutive year - but the UK's overall standing is described as in "modest decline". Oxford and Cambridge take the top two places, but the rankings' publishers say that such "individual stars" are against a background of UK universities slipping back.

Undocumented students in the US state of Georgia say they are being forced to study in secret because of a law that bans them from the state's top universities.
