By focusing on increasing academic productivity and research quality, we are increasing our visibility in the academic world with the successes we have achieved in international rankings. Experiencing the joy of being among the best universities in Asia by achieving a similar success in the Asia University Rankings as in the World University Rankings, where universities' academic performance in various fields is evaluated with different criteria, we sincerely believe that our position in these rankings will rise even higher in the coming years. I congratulate all the members of the BARÜ family who contributed to this process, and I extend my thanks to our support from Prof. Dr. Erol Özvar, the President of the Higher Education Council (YÖK), and all the members of YÖK for their support in our journey of ongoing efforts toward sustainable development."
Times Higher Education (THE) Rankings
Times Higher Education (THE) ranks institutions in education, research environment, research quality, industry income, and international outlook. Demonstrating how the global higher education landscape is changing, THE organizes rankings in 18 separate categories across 5 areas, considering its own dynamics.
Different from the World University Rankings, which provide the most comprehensive evaluation, THE revises the Asia University Rankings to reflect the characteristics of institutions in Asia while using the same 18 performance indicators. Accordingly, THE has made significant updates to the original methodology for the 2024 edition of the Asia Rankings."
