Impact Rankings Times Higher Education

The Times Higher Education Impact Rankings are global performance tables that assess universities against the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We use carefully calibrated indicators to provide comprehensive and balanced comparison across four broad areas: research, stewardship, outreach and teaching. The Impact Rankings are dynamic in nature, expanding rapidly each year as more universities attempt to demonstrate their SDG achievements by joining the database. The rating allows institutions to demonstrate their improvement year-on-year, for example by introducing new clear sustainability policies and providing open evidence of their progress.

Consequently, UzhNU occupies a high 3-6 place among Ukrainian higher education institutions.
