Qatar University ranks among top best 600 universities globally
Gulf Times
The 2022 edition of the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), which was released recently by Shanghai Ranking Consultancy, places Qatar University (QU) in the 501-600 tier. This year, more than 2500 institutions were scrutinized, and the best 1000 universities in the world were ranked. QU is the sole representative of Qatar in this ranking.
On the occasion Dr. Hassan Al-Derham commented saying, “We were among the top 700 universities in the world last year, but this year we have dramatically improved by placing ourselves among the top 600 universities in the world, which is the result of our team's dedication. We are proud to be a top university in the area and to retain a strong presence alongside renowned research universities all around the world. Our renowned curricula, devoted faculty, and outstanding research capabilities are largely responsible for our success.”
This achievement comes to complete an exceptional performance by QU on ARWU’s rankings as it had remarkable results on the Global Ranking of Academic Subjects issued by the same agency in July 2022.
This year QU was ranked in three new subject areas which included: Clinical Medicine, Environmental Science & Engineering and Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences.
