Less than a week after breaking into the world’s top 100 in the QS World University Rankings the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) has been reaffirmed in the top 10 of the world’s “young” universities in the 2023 Times Higher Education (THE) Young University Rankings.
UTS has ranked ninth in the world and first in Australia in the 2023 Young University Rankings, a breakout of the THE World University Rankings for institutions that are 50 years old or younger.
In last October’s THE world rankings UTS rose 10 places to 133rd in the world, maintaining a ninth position in Australia in an ascent of more than 200 places in less than a decade, a trajectory mirrored in both key ranking systems, THE and QS.
UTS Vice-Chancellor Professor Andrew Parfitt said that while in both rankings systems a key element had been the growing strength of UTS research on the world stage, the university was pursuing its own distinctive vision for excellence in higher education.
We are uniquely situated in Sydney’s TechCentral precinct, and within a thriving start-up and creative industries ecosystem.

“We partner with industry to provide solutions to global challenges, in fields including the opportunities and responsible implementation of artificial intelligence, sustainable solutions in energy, water and urban development, human and environmental wellbeing.
“And we are uniquely situated in Sydney’s TechCentral precinct, and within a thriving start-up and creative industries ecosystem.”
