Monash University Australia celebrates its achievemen­t of recoding the strongest ever performanc­e by surging seven places to rank 57th globally and earn a place in the Australian Top 4 in the Times Higher Education ( THE) World University Rankings 2022.

The Times Higher Education (THE) provides trusted performanc­e data on universiti­es, and their rankings cover three major areas on university activities which include research, impact and teaching. It consists of the list of the world’s best universiti­es and is the only global league table that judges research intensive universiti­es across their core missions. The World University Rankings measures universiti­es based on 13 performanc­e indicators across five broad categories inclusive of teaching, research, citations (research influence), internatio­nal outlook and industry income. The 2022 rankings consider almost 1,600 universiti­es across almost 100 countries which represents the largest and diverse university rankings up-to date.

Monash University celebrated an increase across four of the five broad assessment categories, led by particular­ly strong results in the industry income criteria (rising 5.3 points), according to the rankings released today. The other increases were in teaching (up 1.4 points overall), citations ( up 1.5 points) and internatio­nal outlook (up 0.7 points). The score for the broad research metric remained the same, however in the sub-category research income the University gained 2.9 points.

Monash University President and Vice-Chancellor Professor Margaret Gardner said Monash’s position in the 2022 THE World University Rankings was a clear indication of the University’s ongoing commitment to excellence, particular­ly during what has been a challengin­g period for the university sector. “This result is testament to the dedication and hard work of our academic community,” Professor Gardner said. “Monash continues to cement itself as one of the World’s Top 100 Universiti­es; to advance seven places to 57th globally during the COVID-19 pandemic is no small feat. Prof. Gardener added “Our research is strengthen­ed through global collaborat­ion with industry and government. In the past five years, we have had a significan­t focus on collaborat­ion and developed a number of initiative­s to scale enterprisi­ng partnershi­ps so as to diversify income and increase impact across the public and private sectors. Our improved score in industry income criteria demonstrat­es the success of these strengthen­ed relationsh­ips.”
