- Japan has more universities in the top 50 of the ranking (11) than any other location.
- South Korea’s top institution is Korea University (13th).
- Seven of Asia’s top ten universities for research productivity are Indian. However, Indian research quality does not match quantity, and Indian teaching capacity and employability scores decline.
Ben Sowter, Director of Research at QS, said: “This year’s results reiterate the intensely competitive, intensely dynamic nature of Asian higher education. China’s best universities continue to progress, Japanese higher education is stagnating – and Malaysia remains on the rise.”
