The award will be presented to the university at the 20th QS Higher Ed Summit: the Asia Pacific to be held in Indonesia on November 8-10.

The “Recognition of Quality Improvement” certification is awarded to organizations that demonstrate a significant improvement in rating results based on an improvement in average rank.

In order to improve its results in the QS world university rankings, an institution needs to not only improve against itself but also demonstrate improvement compared to other ranked institutions, with regard to the criteria of reputation, research prestige and ability to attract and retain international students and staff, among others.

In recent years, the VNU has maintained its position in the top 801-1000 in the rankings. Its position has steady rose from the top 78.5% of the world’s best universities in 2019 to the top 65.3% in 2023.

The VNU also ranked 758th in the latest Webometrics Ranking of World Universities, jumping 186 places from the previous list released in January.

With the new position, the VNU stood 183rd in Asia and 14th in Southeast Asia, according to the rankings issued by the Cybermetrics Lab of the Spanish National Research Council on August 7.

The Webometrics list, published twice a year, assesses the digitalization capacity and impact of higher education institutions’ academic resources based on the volume of the website content, the visibility and impact of their website publications, the openness of academic resources on Google Scholar, and the number of citations they received on the Scopus database.

To the VNU, the jump from the 1316th position in the January rankings to the 656th in terms of visibility indicates the broad scope of influence of its online resources and website on not only the academic community of Vietnam and the world but also the society.

In 2022, this school has continually recorded higher places in global and Asia university rankings, including among the top 1,000 in the QS World University Rankings and the top 301 – 350 in the Times Higher Education (THE)’s Asia University Rankings.

In the latest list, the VNU was also present together with some other educational institutions of Vietnam, including the Hanoi University of Science and Technology, Ton Duc Thang University, Phenikaa University, Duy Tan University, FPT University, and National Economics University.
