The latest UK-based Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings 2027, released on June 18, measures institutions primarily on research and employability, and has shown a drop by two places for the National University of Singapore (NUS), now at 10th place, and a retaining position of 12th for Nanyang Technological University (NTU). Still, NUS remains Asia’s top-ranked university and is the only Asian university in the top 10.
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology took first place for the 15th consecutive year, with Stanford University and Imperial College London sharing second place.
