Ondokuz Mayıs University (OMU), carried on the tradition of finding a place at the prestigious international university ranking systems through maintaining its academic and research performance which earned us our first placement in the British ranking organization Times Higher Education’s (THE) World University Rankings in 2018.

The rankings table is based on 13 performance indicators that measure an institution’s performance across four areas: teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook.

The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2022 include more than 1,600 universities across 99 countries and territories this year.

The University of Oxford tops the ranking for the sixth consecutive year, while mainland China has two institutions in the top 20 for the first time. The US is the most-represented country overall with 183 institutions, and also the most represented in the top 200 (57), although its share of universities in this elite group is falling.

Six new countries feature in the table compared with last year: Azerbaijan, Ecuador, Ethiopia, Fiji, Palestine and Tanzania. Harvard University tops the teaching pillar, while the University of Oxford tops the research pillar and Macau University of Science and Technology leads the international pillar.

Overall, 1,662 universities are ranked. A further 452 universities are listed with "reporter" status, meaning that they provided data but did not meet the eligibility criteria to receive a rank.

As a result of the emphasis given to the collaboration with the industry, OMU’s highest ranked pillar became Industry Income category in which the University became 1083rd in the world.
