According to the latest report released by QS the UoH is ranked among the World’s Top Universities in the range of 651-700. QS has categorized UoH as an established medium sized public university with high research intensity and comprehensive subject focus.

According to a press release by the QS, the methodology used six indicators to determine the institutions’ rankings — academic reputation (40 percent), employer reputation (10 percent), faculty-student ratio (20 percent), citations per faculty (20 percent), the proportion of international students (5 percent) and the proportion of international faculty 5 percent).

Overall, in the 2021 edition, the UoH performed among the top 55% in the QS World University Rankings. At 293 rank globally, the Citations per Faculty is the strongest indicator for UoH. In citations per faculty it is valued at 95.60 whereas the Global Median is 49.10. Its Citations are at 38719 for a total of 4196 research papers published during the period 2014-19.

Responding to the newest ranking, Prof. Appa Rao Podile, Vice Chancellor, said, “UoH has again been ranked among the Top Global Universities which is a good indicator of its performance. However, noting the slide down in some parameters that has affected the overall ranking, we will take steps to strengthen those areas. We need to perform better in all key areas of teaching and research to be among the Top 300 in the World. I am confident that with the Institution of Eminence tag, UoH will soon be able to reach the highest pedestal.”
