Texas Tech ranked as one of the top universities in the world

Texas Tech rose over 250 places in the world rankings since just last year


As if we needed reminding how great Texas Tech is, we have officially been declared as one of the top 1 percent of universities in the world.

The study, which judges the best 1000 universities across the planet, placed us in the top 750. There are an estimated 26,000 universities in the world.

Last year we weren’t even ranked in the top 1,000, meaning this year we jumped over a staggering 250 places on the list.

Coming as no surprise, MIT, Stanford, and Harvard all took the top spots for another year running.

The QS World University Rankings bases their scores on the expert opinions of 75,015 academics and 40,455 employers, also analyzing institutional research impact. It’s known as the definitive guide of global university rankings.
