Five of Australia's leading universities have ranked dangerously low in the Times Higher Education's 2025 global ranking indicating a major drop in both teaching and research.
'Serious warning signs': Five of Australia's elite universities place dangerously low in global ranking
The global comparison of 2860 universities is based on the performance indicators of research, impact and teaching. The University of Sydney fell into third place in Australia but 61 in the global charts, followed by the Australian National University at 73 after announcing a deficit of up to $250 million to get the institution on a"sustainable footing".
The global report revealed major drops in both teaching and research compared to the previous year. In 2021, 12 Australian universities placed in the top 100 of the global rankings but now there is only 10. “Perhaps most alarmingly, they are losing ground in areas of great traditional strength: international research collaboration and the attraction of international talent.
The global report comes amid the federal government's plan to cap the number of international students enrolling at universities, after records showed 70,000 enrolments came from offshore this year.
