The Technion is 94th on a list of the world\u2019s top 100 universities, according to a report published yesterday by Shanghai Ranking, the world’s leading index for higher education. The Technion – Israel Institute of Technology is also on the top 50 list in two fields: aerospace engineering (16th place) and automation & control (46th place). In chemistry, the Technion ranks among the top 50-75 universities in the world. The Technion has consistently made the top 100 list of the Shanghai Ranking since 2012 (with one exception in 2020).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Technion is one of the world\u2019s leading universities, and we will continue to invest efforts and resources to maintain this position for years to come,\u201d said Technion President Prof. Uri Sivan. \u201cThe Technion\u2019s strength lies in its excellent human capital, which leads to numerous achievements and breakthroughs in research and teaching. This is the result of hard work and dedication by Technion faculty, deans, administrative staff, and management.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prof. Sivan added that the Technion\u2019s listing on the Shanghai Ranking and other indices \u201cis not a purpose on its own. Global academic competition is rapidly intensifying, and while many governments around the world are steadily increasing their investments in academia and research, Israeli universities rely almost entirely on donations, which are becoming increasingly difficult to get.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Prof. Sivan, \u201cin order for Israel to preserve its standing at the forefront of global research, and to ensure the nation\u2019s security, as well as its academic and economic future, the government should significantly increase investment in research and teaching, as well as adopt a welcoming stance toward the absorption of foreign faculty and students.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Prof. Sivan is \u201cpleased that the Technion is among the three Israeli academic institutions on the top 100 list, we must remember that without government support and globalization of our research institutions, it will be harder for us to maintain this position.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Shanghai Ranking, first published in 2003, categorizes academic institutions according to objective criteria, such as the number of Nobel Prize laureates and other prestigious awards; the number of scientific articles published in the leading journals Nature and Science; the number of times scientific articles published by university researchers have been quoted; and researchers who\u2019ve been frequently quoted in academic journals, relative to their peers in the field.<\/p>\n

The index looks at 1,800 universities, from which the top 1,000 are selected. Leading the list are Harvard University, Stanford University, University of Cambridge, MIT and UC Berkeley. For the full ranking, click here.<\/a><\/p>\n
