ShanghaiRanking’s Global Ranking of Academic Subjects has published the ARWU by academic subjects since 2009. The rankings assess more than 4000 universities across 54 subjects in natural sciences, engineering, life sciences, medical sciences, and social sciences.

UNSW Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research) Professor Nicholas Fisk acknowledged UNSW’s achievements in continuing to climb up the ranks and congratulated the hard-working University community on the excellent results.

Today’s results in these prestigious rankings underscore the breadth, depth and consistency of UNSW research across almost the whole range of disciplines. Off the back of recent success in various national and international rankings, this supports UNSW not only as a leader in research quality and impact, but also for our research reach,” said Professor Fisk.



United States universities continued to dominate the rankings, occupying first place in 35 disciplines, followed by China with 11. The best performing institution in the world continued to be Harvard, taking 14 crowns, ShanghaiRanking said in a statement.

The methodology to determine the ranking includes the number of papers published, international collaboration and citation impact. Results are based on subject analysis of last year’s global ARWU rankings.
