You’re studying at a highly ranked university

Halfway in September the Times Higher Education rankings came out. TU Delft ranked at place 59! The previous year our university was 66th place, which means we moved up 7 places. Happy days.

Besides the general ranking of THE, the TU Delft also made three subject rankings. In the list of Engineering & Technology the university came in 20th, we came 35th in the list of Computer Sciences and in the new list for  Physical Sciences TU Delft ranked place 58.

THE Ranking

On a yearly basis THE generates a general Times Higher Education World Ranking between 980 universities worldwide. Within this ranking, universities are compared based upon 5 indicators: research, education, citation, internationalisation and income from the industry. Changes within the methodology of ranking, have changed the outcomes of the rankings over the years.

Rankings

The THE-Ranking, the Shanghai-ranking and the QS-ranking together form the leading university rankings worldwide. All three rankings have different methodologies with their own benefits and shortcomings. Within the QS Ranking this year the TU Delft ranked 62 compared to 64 last year.

Take a look at Times Higher Education Ranking for additional information.
