DCU rises in latest young university rankings

Dublin City University has risen five places to no. 74 in the Young University Rankings published today by Times Higher Education.

The Young University Rankings, previously known as the THE 150 Under 50, have now been extended to include 200 of the top global institutions established since 1967.  Universities featured are measured on their teaching, research, citations, international outlook and industry income, with methodologies taking into account the special characteristics of younger universities.

DCU President, Professor Brian MacCraith welcomed the ranking result,

β€œAn improved performance for DCU in this international ranking is to be welcomed as it raises the profile of both the university and Ireland as a destination for international students, international academic staff and institutional research partners.  This is particularly significant in a post-Brexit landscape where the reputation of our education and research offerings will be critical if Ireland is to exploit the opportunities presented.”
