ARWU 2024
The Shanghai ranking reaffirms the UPV as the best polytechnic in Spain for yet another year
[ 05/09/2024 ]
The Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), popularly known as the Shanghai ranking and considered internationally as the most prestigious indicator of universities in the world due to the objectivity of its methodology, has once again recognised the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) as the best polytechnic in Spain.
In its , ARWU places the institution directed by José E. Capilla as the only Spanish polytechnic among the 500 best universities in the world. The podium is completed by the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), ranked 601-700, and the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), ranked 801-900.
National top 10
Created in 2003, ARWU includes the UPV in the international university elite for the 20th consecutive time and also places it in the top 10 of all universities in the country, ranking it ninth among all higher education institutions, both public and private, in Spain.
Internationally recognised by all top-level rankings
Along with ARWU 2024, the other two main world university rankings, QS and THE, also endorse the UPV's level. Not in vain, last June, the QS World University Rankings included the UPV in the top 500 worldwide for another year, and in its rankings by subject, it was also named as the best university in Spain to study Art and Design as well as Agri-Food and Forestry Engineering.
A week later, Times Higher Education (THE) magazine recognised the UPV as one of the 200 universities with the greatest social and economic impact in the world, as well as including it in the top 100 in up to 3 different SDGs.
