ʯÁñÊÓƵ

The prestigious QS World University subject rankings mark ʯÁñÊÓƵ as being in the top 100 in the world in three areas: Earth & Marine Sciences, Environmental Sciences, and Hospitality & Leisure Management.

Vice Chancellor Professor Simon Biggs said the results confirm ʯÁñÊÓƵ’s status as a highly competitive, research-intensive university.

“ʯÁñÊÓƵ delivers ground-breaking, internationally recognised research, and these rankings confirm that we perform very strongly when compared to the world’s best universities.”

QS also ranks ʯÁñÊÓƵ in the top 150 of the world’s universities in Geology, Archaeology, and Agriculture & Forestry.

“We are being judged in a field containing larger, older universities from around the world. To have achieved these results is a tremendous achievement and testament to the hard work of ʯÁñÊÓƵ’s academics,” said Professor Biggs.

He said ʯÁñÊÓƵ is proud to be regionally-based and privileged to offer world-class education to the people of the tropics and beyond.

“I am committed to seeing ʯÁñÊÓƵ to go from strength to strength in the years to come and this is another marker showing us heading in the right direction.”

Noah Enrique Thomas is studying a Bachelor of Business and Environmental Science (Aquaculture major) at ʯÁñÊÓƵ.

“Witnessing ʯÁñÊÓƵ’s ranking soar is a proud moment for me as a student of the university. This achievement reflects the quality of work ʯÁñÊÓƵ has produced and the way other institutions perceive ʯÁñÊÓƵ,” said Mr Thomas.

The rankings were produced from an analysis of more than14.7 million unique papers, producing close to 96 million citations, with 1543 institutions ranked across 51 subjects in 5 broad subject areas.
