Study in UK: The University of Manchester maintains its top rankings in the recently released THE World Reputation Rankings 2025. The university has been placed at the 50th position.

THE World Reputation Rankings 2025 has placed the University of Manchester at the 50th position. Its position has improved as compared to the past and it is one of eight institutes in the UK which was listed in the top 50 of the rankings.

Professor Duncan Ivison, President and Vice-Chancellor at The University of Manchester said, “Our inclusion in the THE World Reputation Rankings top 50 reflects our global reputation for pioneering research and excellence in teaching and learning. How we are perceived on the world stage is vital to attracting top talent and, as the higher education sector grows increasingly competitive, we must continue to innovate and evolve to strengthen our position. This recognition serves as both a testament to our achievements and a motivation to push further as we shape the future through Manchester 2035—our bold new strategy for the next decade.”

Phil Baty, Times Higher Education’s chief global affairs officer, said, “THE World Reputation Rankings are built on a survey of 55,000 expert academic voices from around the world – so they are a powerful and robust indicator of a university’s global academic standing among peers. There are tens of thousands of higher education institutions in the world, so to make the list of the world’s top 50 most prestigious universities, voted by expert academic peers, is an exceptional accolade. Manchester clearly has a very strong grounding in its local community – but it is evidently also greatly respected and admired by scholars all across the world.”
