The exclusive partner for Monash Education in Sri Lanka, Universal College Lanka (UCL) is proud to announce that Monash University has skyrocketed 13 places to be ranked 44th globally in the prestigious Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings 2023, just released.
The Times Higher Education World University Rankings’ methodology uses carefully calibrated performance indicators to provide the most comprehensive and balanced comparisons, trusted by students, academics, university leaders, industry and governments. Grouped into five areas, the performance indicators include: teaching (the learning environment); research (volume, income and reputation); citations (research influence); international outlook (staff, students and research); and industry income (knowledge transfer).
Monash University President and Vice-Chancellor Professor Margaret Gardner AC said the landmark results were testament to the hard work of the University’s talented and dedicated staff, and their enduring commitment to world-class research and education. “Monash University has established a world-renowned reputation for undertaking research and education of the highest international quality that addresses challenges of the age, and develops understanding and solutions for the betterment of global communities,” Professor Gardner said.

Monash is a leader in translating ground-breaking research into outcomes and success stories enabled by the breadth of our research capability, which extends from discovery through to application’.
Monash has entered the World’s Top 50 ranking for the first time, whilst also increasing its rank in Australia, climbing two places to second. Since the 2020 edition, Monash has leapt a staggering 40 places in these rankings, over four consecutive years.
