ASU's undergraduate program is ranked 65th for public universities and 132nd of 280 " national universities " by the 2012 US News and World Report ranking of US colleges and universities ; and, for the fourth year in a row, ASU was ranked in the top 10 for " Up and Coming " universities in the US, for substantial improvements to academics and facilities.

Several of ASU's graduate schools also appear among the top of the US News & World Report rankings, including the 30th-ranked W. P. Carey School of Business ( along with its 4th-ranked program in Supply Chain Management and the 15th-ranked program in Information Systems ), the 26th-ranked Sandra Day O ' Connor College of Law, the 43rd-ranked Ira A.

Its sister services, BBC World was also renamed as " BBC World News " while the national news bulletins became BBC News at One, BBC News at Six and BBC News at Ten.

The BBC News Channel moved from the Studio N8 set ( now home to BBC World News ) to what was the home of the national news in Studio N6, allowing the Channel to share its set with the BBC News at One and the BBC News at Ten – with other bulletins moving to studio TC7.

It is expected that the BBC News Channel will relocate, along with other BBC news services including BBC World News to the newly refurbished Broadcasting House in late 2012 / early 2013, after completion of the new television news studios has taken place and it will be relaunched.

Coverage of major events has also been simulcast on BBC World News.
