NUS' reputation as a premier tertiary institution continued to rise to new heights in the year of review. The University's multiple-pathway approach to education has added lustre to our prestigious standing in the global arena. Our wide spectrum of programmes ensures students can choose from a diverse range of avenues to receive a world-class education.
In 2012, the University climbed four rungs in the World Reputation Rankings published by Times Higher Education. Coming in 23rd in the world's largest survey of academic opinion, which features 17,554 respondents across 137 countries, is a strong endorsement of the University's continued efforts to pioneer educational innovations and cutting-edge research.
Further underscoring our continued ascent on the global stage, the University moved up one notch to the second position on the 2012 Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) University Rankings: Asia. This improvement came on the back of a strong showing across most of the QS indicators. NUS took the pole position in Asia for employer reputation and international faculty, and second for academic reputation. |
