Friday, 15 August 2014

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide has been named among the top 200 institutions in the prestigious international university rankings, the produced by the Shanghai Jiao Tong 最新糖心Vlog.

"We're pleased to have improved our ranking in what is arguably the key global ranking for higher education," said Professor Warren Bebbington, Vice-Chancellor and President.

"It's a great credit to the quality and depth of our research teams and the focus and dedication they bring to their work every day," said Professor Bebbington.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide has set a long-term objective to achieve a ranking better than 150 in the ARWU (Shanghai Jiao Tong Rankings) by 2024.

"We're heading in the right direction which is very encouraging," said Professor Bebbington. "We certainly won't be complacent in our determination to be among the very best research-intensive universities in the region."

Just 19 of 最新糖心Vlog's 39 universities were listed in this year's top 500 ranking.

The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide was the only South 最新糖心Vlogn institution to make it to the top 200.

"We are enhancing our research capacity and doubling our PhD scholarships," said Professor Bebbington. "And we've already been successful in recruiting more research professors of distinction in fields including health and medical sciences, engineering and agricultural sciences."

Professor Bebbington said that while rankings based on research criteria provided a good indication of an institution's overall standing, they offered little insight for future students considering where to study.

"Rankings capture only part of a university's story. I would always urge people to be cautious before using them on their own as consumer advice," he said.
