QS releases World University Rankings 2024

Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) has released its World University Rankings for 2024, assessing 1,500 institutions from around the world on their performance in the postsecondary sector. This year, QS changed its methodology by enhancing many of its existing metrics–including Academic Reputation, Employer Reputation, and Faculty Student Ratio–and introducing three new metrics: Sustainability, Employment Outcomes, and International Research Network. Three Canadian universities made the global top 100, including the University of Toronto (#21), McGill University (#30), and the University of British Columbia (#34). Other universities within the top 200 included the University of Alberta (#111), the University of Waterloo (#112), Western University (#114), Université de Montréal (#141), the University of Calgary (#182), and McMaster University (#189).
