The 2022 Shanghai Ranking: for the third consecutive year, Université Paris-Saclay remains in the global top 20

Université Paris-Saclay’s performance in the 2022 ARWU supports its strong results in the academic subject rankings (GRAS) published earlier this year on 19 July 2022 (see below), as well as those obtained in other international rankings. This consistent performance is reflected in a potential to attract and develop international collaborations in research and education, as well as in partnerships with key socio-economic players. Based on evaluation criteria focused on research excellence, the Shanghai Ranking has once again reaffirmed Université Paris-Saclay’s capacity to excel on the international stage.

“Our University has been built on the strong historic foundations of French universities and Grandes Écoles, in strong collaboration with national research organisations. Today, it has firmly established itself as one of the world’s top research universities,” said Estelle Iacona, President of Université Paris-Saclay. “We are honoured by this ranking but we also understand the great responsibility it bears, as it places us as a leading player in the European research and education area. We are committed to contributing to the education of the citizens of tomorrow, and to the development of innovation in an ecosystem which values collective progress, by training scientists and decision makers who will be able to imagine and provide solutions to the challenges our societies must face.”
