If you are in the UK try the RAE (Research Assessment Exercise) website (http://www.rae.ac.uk) which gives a detailed breakdown of not only the quality of universities but for each indivdual course. Some universities have a low ranking overall but great rankings for certain areas of study.

From sports to education, people in general are captivated by rankings. Everyone wants their favorite team to be the best, and every parent wants their child to attend the best college or university. While sports teams can compete on the playing field to determine who is better on a given day, institutions of higher education have no commonly agreed upon measures to allow for the comparison of teaching and research programs. The overwhelming variety in size and purpose of institutions makes the prospect of comparing colleges a daunting one for students, parents, and the colleges themselves.
For many years, various bodies have undertaken statistical and reputational rankings of colleges and attempted to provide information to prospective students. Increasingly, the importance and validity of college rankings is a hotly debated issue. Many universities, including highly ranked ones, are beginning to question both the data and methods used by some ranking services. Of special concern are the aspects of the rankings which deal with the difficult to measure concept of institutional reputation. You will find many ranking services but they have to be taken wth cautionary notes and a discussion of the ongoing controversy over rankings.
It is extremely difficult to endorse a ranking service . One can only draw together and provide context to various ranking services hoping that the information will improve your knowledge about rankings in general and help you better use these services. Toward that end, it is highly recommended that a caution is ex ercised.The Rankings Bibliography of many a college provide numerous articles on the topic in addition to a publication which lists the national rankings of the various departments.
If you have questions about rankings, or would like to recommend a resource for inclusion, please contact the Education and Social Science Library, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
