(SPOT.ph) Big day for alumni who are definitely going to brag about this news in batch group chats: Six Philippine universities have made it to the 2025 Times Higher Education (THE) World Rankings.
Ateneo de Manila University topped the list for the third time in a row, ranking 1001-1200 in a total of 2,092 universities from 115 countries and territories. Joining the Loyola School in this prestigious list are the usual "Big 4" schools—University of the Philippines (UP), De La Salle University (DLSU), and University of Santo Tomas (UST)—are also part of the roster. These rankings remain largely unchanged from the 2024 results.
But that's not all—Mapua University is back for the second time, while Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology (MSU-IIT) has made a notable debut, becoming the first university outside Metro Manila to break into the list.
"We deliberately worked hard to be in the rankings. That’s why there were policy reforms done particularly in incentivizing faculty and students who published in Scopus-indexed journals," Chancellor Alizedney M. Ditucalan said.
This also makes MSU-IIT the youngest local university to be ranked in the global system.
- Ateneo de Manila: 1001-1200 bracket
- University of the Philipines: 1201-1500 bracket
- De La Salle University: 1501+ bracket
- Mapua University: 1501+ bracket
- Mindanao State University: 1501+
- University of Santo Tomas: 1501+ bracket
THE is a UK-based group that ranks "research-intensive universities" across the globe based on teaching, research, knowledge transfer, and international outlook.
