The QS ranking is based on surveying academic staff that declare a speciality in the subject area, and employers who recruit graduates that specialise in the discipline. It also takes into account research output and impact, with both citations and paper output measured over a five-year period.
We're thrilled to announce our Schools across Engineering have been ranked in the QS global top 100 for the following:
- Engineering – Mechanical, Aeronautical and Manufacturing (=73) – reflecting work undertaken in the School of Aeronautical and Automotive Engineering and Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering
- Architecture and the Built Environment (51-100) – reflecting work undertaken in the School of Architecture, Building and Civil Engineering
- Petroleum Engineering (51-100) – reflecting work undertaken in the School of Aeronautical and Automotive Engineering and Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering
