KUALA LUMPUR: UCSI University is now ranked 45th in the QS World University Rankings: Asia 2025 exercise.
Climbing 16 spots, UCSI broke into Asia’s top 50 for the first time to maintain its upward trajectory in global university rankings.
UCSI vice-chancellor Prof Emerita Datuk Dr Siti Hamisah Tapsir said that the new milestone showed that the University was clearly moving in the right direction.
“The new ranking is very encouraging but it’s more important to note that UCSI has improved its continental rank for eight straight years,” she said.
“This is the result of hard work, consistency and grit. I would like to thank UCSI students and staff for going beyond themselves year after year.
“We want our students to stand out as consequential changemakers and we will do more to make progress in the areas of research, academic reputation and employer reputation.”
UCSI has nurtured four Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia inductees and an increasing number of its alumni are launching their own social enterprises.
The University is also ranked in the world’s top 1% in the QS World University Rankings 2024 by virtue of its top 265 ranking.
