NTU is ranked 15th, while NUS is highest-ranked Asian university.

SINGAPORE – The National University of Singapore has retained its spot in the top 10 in a global ranking of institutions, while Nanyang Technological University has re-entered the top 20.

The University of Oxford is third, Harvard University fourth and the University of Cambridge is ranked fifth. Indicators like international research network, employment outcomes and sustainability – three new metrics introduced in 2024’s ranking – carry a weightage of 5 per cent each. Professor Tan Eng Chye, president of NUS, said: “We are heartened that NUS has placed among the world’s top 10 and retained its lead in Asia in the QS World University Rankings 2025 – a collective achievement by our outstanding faculty, staff, students and alumni.

NTU’s climb of 11 places from 26th in the 2024 QS rankings was driven by improvements in employer reputation and sustainability.
