QS Quacquarelli Symonds, the publisher of the QS World University Rankings®, has today launched a new ranking of universities in Emerging Europe and Central Asia, with the region’s top 100 universities unveiled at a launch event in Budapest. This is the first ever university ranking dedicated to the EECA region, whose institutions are “reaching out to the world, driving innovation and marketing their unique strengths like never before”, said Ben Sowter, head of research at QS.

This pilot edition of the QS University Rankings: Emerging Europe and Central Asia sees Russia’s Lomonosov Moscow State University take the top spot, followed by the Czech Republic’s Charles University, which shares second place with another Russian representative, Novosibirsk State University. Overall, Russian universities claim the largest share of the region’s top 100 universities, with 26 entries. The Czech Republic and Turkey have 10 apiece, Poland nine, Kazakhstan eight, and Hungary and Ukraine six each.

Universities across a total of 30 countries in Emerging Europe and Central Asia were considered for inclusion, with the ranking’s reach extending to Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Georgia, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, the Kyrgyz Republic, Latvia, Lithuania, Macedonia, Moldova, Montenegro, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan.

Supporting the global ambitions of EECA universities

The project involved reaching out to a total of 368 universities, of which 255 had not previously been featured in the QS rankings. It’s envisaged that future editions will assess and feature even more of the region’s fast-developing higher education providers.

“Universities in the EECA region are beginning to add depth to the landscape of global higher education,” Sowter said, “Inevitably, they are becoming increasingly attractive to students and QS is pleased to announce the first rankings dedicated to this region – providing these universities with a platform to shine and giving regionally mobile students a way to compare universities.”

The ranking’s methodology has been developed in consultation with the QS Global Academic Advisory Board and with regional experts, with the aim of reflecting current priorities for universities in the region. It draws on nine indicators, designed to assess institutions’ global reputation and online reach, research productivity and impact, internationalization, and staffing levels.
