For the first time in its history, the Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University has been included in the Times Higher Education’s World Subject Rankings. The latest success in the engineering category confirms that the institution is among the international leaders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Times Higher Education (THE), one of the leading international higher education rating organisations, publishes its annual world ranking of the world’s best universities in the autumn. The current ranking was published on October 26th and covers the period into 2024, analyses universities in 11 disciplines according to five indicators – teaching, research, academic publications, internationalisation, and industry income. In the engineering category, more than 1,400 universities were ranked, including, for the first time, Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University, which means that the institution is among the world leaders in this field. The quality of the ranking is reflected in the fact that the top ten universities include Harvard, Stanford, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the US, followed by the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge in the UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The development and excellence of the Gy\u0151r-based institution is demonstrated by its debut in THE’s world rankings at the end of October. Furthermore, it was also included for the third time in the world rankings by the Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) organisation, another major global rating entity, with its results published in June, was ranked 382nd in the European QS rankings, and published for the first time in mid-September, as the sixth best Hungarian university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Our university aims to catch up with the best in the world in order to provide students with an even higher quality education and to contribute even more to the competitiveness of the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new world ranking of ours is a great success and confirms that our institution is among the leaders in the field of engineering sciences, which greatly contributes to the development of the economy, not only in Hungary but also at the international level”, emphasised Dr. B\u00e1lint Filep, President of the Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“On the one hand, it is extremely important from a scientific point of view that our university has been included in the THE list of specialised fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This ranking adopts the indicators of  a world class ranking system, while at the same time weighting the differences between the research culture of the various disciplines. It applies world-class publication minimums, which means that our research in engineering is internationally benchmarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, decisions on foreign direct investment in our country takes the quality of our workforce into account when securing a supply for its labour needs, which is further strengthened by our position in the ranking of disciplines,\u201d said Dr. Eszter Luk\u00e1cs, Vice President for International and Strategic Relations at the Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University, who thanked all colleagues for their support, including the staff of the University Library and Archives who contributed to the data collection needed for the rankings application, and all those who participated in the data provision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
