Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University is ranked 399th in the latest European ranking published by the international higher education rating organisation Quacquarelli Symonds (QS), thus continuing to be counted among Europe\u2019s top 400 higher education institutions. This result is particularly significant in light of the fact that this year\u2019s edition of the list has expanded by almost 300 universities.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
QS, one of the two largest international organisations assessing higher education institutions, published its European ranking on 28 January, in which it evaluated around 4,000 universities from the 46 member states of the Council of Europe on the basis of teaching quality, research performance, internationalisation and links with the labour market. As the sixth best university in Hungary, Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University holds the 399th position this year, retaining its place among the continent\u2019s top 400 universities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The prestige of the ranking is well illustrated by the fact that its leading positions are occupied by globally influential institutions such as the University of Oxford, ETH Zurich and the Imperial College in London. Based on certain indicators in the ranking, Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University enjoys an exceptionally favourable reputation among companies and employers, while there is significant international student interest in part-time programmes. All this reflects well the institution\u2019s strong labour market integration and international appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis result once again confirms for our institution that the conscious development of our international relations, as well as the integration of education and research into global networks, are fundamental conditions for competitiveness. To this end, we provide modern infrastructure, scholarship opportunities, and support for publications and conference participation, which contribute to making the results of the work carried out at Sz\u00e9chenyi University visible to the wider professional community and to further strengthening our position,\u201d<\/em> explained Dr Eszter Luk\u00e1cs, the University\u2019s Vice-President for International Affairs and Strategic Relations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She added that from the perspective of Europe\u2019s future, it is a key issue for universities to provide students with knowledge, a mindset and internationally competitive degrees that represent real value in the labour market.\u00a0\u201cThe strategy and daily operations of Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University also serve this goal,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0she said.<\/p>\n\n\n
