The latest edition of the rankings now has 34 Queen’s subjects ranked overall, up from 32 last year, with Biological Sciences and Environmental Sciences maintaining their position in the global top 200.

Welcoming the University’s performance, Professor Margaret Topping, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Global Engagement, said:

“I am delighted to see Queen’s build on its strong reputation as a world-leading University once again this year, across such wide-ranging subject areas.

“Our continued progress reflects the outstanding work taking place across the University and these results are testimony to the collective commitment of our staff, students and graduates, and to the calibre of our research. I would like to thank colleagues across Queen’s whose efforts have contributed to this success.”

 

Professor Nigel Scollan, Head of School, added:

“Maintaining Biological Sciences and Environmental Sciences within the world’s top two hundred reflects the sustained excellence and global impact of our research and teaching. I congratulate our staff and students for their dedication, which has made this achievement possible.

We look forward to building on this success and further advancing our work on global challenges.”

 

QS uses five key metrics to compile subject rankings. Reputation indicators are based on the responses of more than 200,000 employers and academics to QS surveys. Citations per Paper and H-Index measure research impact and productivity, and International Research Network (IRN) is used to assess cross-border research collaboration.
