University Of Leeds rises 75th globally in QS World University Rankings

The University has climbed 11 places in the 2024 QS World University Rankings to 75th in the world.

The respected rankings consider research and discovery, employability and outcomes, learning experience, global engagement and sustainability in their methodology.

The ranking of 75th is the University’s highest ever position in the QS rankings’ 20-year history. A key strength identified was the International Research Network, for which indicator the University was ranked 16th in the world.

Professor Hai-Sui Yu, Provost and Deputy Vice-Chancellor, said: “Research and teaching expertise at Leeds continues to place us alongside other outstanding universities across the globe.
