UNL is officially better than 98% of all universities in the world

Go Cornhuskers!


New world university rankings have been released today, revealing that UNL is one of the world’s best institutions.

The study, which judged over 1000 universities across the world, placed UNL in the top 500 in the world, and 99th in the USA.

UNL proudly sits next to Drexel University and just ahead of the University of South Florida.

We were also rated in the top 250 for Environmental Sciences.

At the top of the table, MIT retained the top spot, followed closely by Stanford and Harvard.  Stanford overtook the University of Cambridge into second place and in doing so, it means that the United States holds all of the top-three places for the first time since the inaugural rankings of 2004.

Kansas State didn’t do so well, not even making the top 700.
