MANILA, Philippines — Four Philippine universities have secured their spots in Times Higher Education’s Asia University Ranking in 2023.
The list, which was released on Thursday, ranked 669 institutions from 31 places.
Below are the Philippine universities included in the list along with their rankings:
- Ateneo de Manila University (84)
- University of the Philippines (201 – 250)
- De La Salle University (501 – 600)
- Mapua University (601+)
Ateneo de Manila University also emerged as the top Philippine school in Times Higher Education’s IMPACT Rankings which was released on June 1, 2023.
This is a worldwide performance assessment conducted to measure universities’ success in delivering the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
Apart from the four universities that were ranked, six Philippine institutions were also included in the list under “reporter” status.
These are Cebu Technological University, Mindanao State University – Iligan Institute of Technology, University of Santo Tomas, University of Science and Technology of Southern Philippines, Tarlac Agricultural University, and Visayas State University.
Reporter status indicates the university is an active participant in the ranking process, even though they have not been ranked.
To provide “comprehensive” and “balanced comparisons,” Times Higher Education said the universities are judged based on their core missions.
These are teaching, research, knowledge transfer, and internal outlook.
