DCU in Global 300 Top Universities
9 October 2009

The Times Higher Education World University Rankings have shown a jump in Dublin City University’s position from 302 in the league table to 279, an increase of 23 places. The QS World University Rankings are regarded as the most reliable and prestigious international university league table.

“We are delighted with DCU’s continuing rise in the world rankings” said Ferdinand von Prondzynski, the President of DCU. “For an institution that only became a university 20 years ago, it is a great achievement to be ranked with universities that have hundreds of years of tradition and experience.”

The World Rankings score universities on a number of metrics as well as inputs from academics in other institutions and from employers. DCU in particular scored very highly in the employer survey.
