Aalto University ranks 126th in the world in QS World University Rankings
Aalto University ranks 126th in this year’s QS World University Rankings, compared with 114th place last year.
The QS ranking evaluates universities comprehensively across nine indicators, each with a different weighting. The criteria include research citations, academic reputation, employer reputation, international faculty, employment outcomes, sustainability, international research networks, faculty-to-student ratio, and the proportion of international students.
Aalto performs best in the employment outcomes and sustainability indicators.
QS includes the top 1,500 universities worldwide in its rankings. This year’s top-ranked university was the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
There are an estimated 17,000–22,000 universities worldwide, depending on the definition used.
QS (Quacquarelli Symonds) is one of the most influential global university rankings. In addition to overall rankings, QS publishes rankings by subject and region. For Aalto, subject-specific rankings are often more relevant than overall rankings, as the university specialises in technology, business, and art and design.
