The September 2024 Times Higher Education World University Rankings have been released. UTS is ranked 133rd globally, 9th in Australia, and is one of the highest-quality research universities in the country. One of the core indicators in the THE rankings is research quality, which primarily assesses research publication output and citation performance — both reflecting the impact on scholars at other institutions worldwide. The assessment also evaluates institutional research strength, research excellence, and research influence.

Vice-Chancellor Professor Andrew Parfitt stated: “The quality and impact of UTS researchers’ work is gaining increasingly broad recognition both in Australia and internationally. For many years, UTS has been at the forefront of interdisciplinary research in key fields such as artificial intelligence, environmental science, allied health, and engineering.”
“The latest THE rankings are testament to the dedicated research of UTS’s globally renowned scholars. We remain at the cutting edge across many important areas crucial to Australia’s development, serving as pioneers of technological advancement,” said Professor Parfitt.

In the current THE World University Rankings, UTS also performed strongly on the “International Outlook” indicator.This indicator measures the proportion of international students, international academic staff, and international co-authorship.
