The University of Exeter’s flourishing global reputation has been reinforced by moving in the top 150 worldwide in the latest influential league table.

As we move to implementing our new strategy, results such as this truly show how important our role is in creating a sustainable, healthy and socially just future for all.”
These are the latest rankings this year that reflect Exeter’s position amongst the world’s leading universities.
The University broke into the top 150 in the QS World University Rankings for the first time, securing 149th position, in the latest table, while the University was also ranked as the 46th most international university worldwide, based on data from the Times Higher Education World University Rankings.
