Popular Post webfact Posted May 2 Popular Post Share Posted May 2 Chulalongkorn University has clinched top rankings in Thailand and 117th among 739 Asian institutions in the Asia University Rankings 2024. This is a significant leap from its previous ranking, improving 102 spots since last year when 669 universities were included. The latest list, released on Wednesday, features 19 universities from Thailand. The ranking process uses five key measures of excellence: teaching (24.5%), research environment (28%), research quality (30%), industry (10%), and international outlook (7.5%). Chulalongkorn University's high ranking reflects its superior performance in these areas.

KhunLA Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Daughter went to Thammasat, rated #6 (in Thailand) for business/economics, even though accepted at the other 3. Submitted her application too late for Chula. Except for 'Songkhla, we actually visited the other 3 campuses, along with a few others, talking with students & alumni, before choosing, and money well spent: 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gottfrid Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 What Placed 117th in Asia. And that will be even lower on the International list. What is Chulalongkorn? Just another school in Thailand with failed prospects. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is Chulalongkorn? Just another school in Thailand with failed prospects. Chula being in the top 20-25% worldwide isn't actually a bad position to be in. Especially if the student apples themselves. Top Uni is useless if student doesn't really care to apply themselves. A Thai, studying overseas, isn't the easiest thing to do, financially or socially. Limited options for most, that's worldwide. Edited May 3 by KhunLA 2 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each of these "lists" uses different criteria, and they are biased. And, many relay on students' reporting, or on number of research papers published. Therefore, for example, if one criterion is numbers of paper published, there is no mention of what journals have published the papers. In the case of some universities around here, the grad students seem to publish their articles/papers in lesser known GARBAGE publications, like Boy's Life, or something, IDK.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised. - I've taught / done invited lectures at NUS Singapore, everything planned / done with excellence. Great students. - I've taught at Beijing university, Executive MBA in English. Everything planned and executed with impressive quality, excellent students, want to learn, they add highly valuable discussion / application in the classroom, in case studies, in exams. Students very keen to learn about the value of leadership behaviors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinsdale Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) 1 hour ago, FritsSikkink said: How is your university ranked? Way above Chula according to https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/2024/world-ranking#!/length/25/locations/THA/sort_by/rank/sort_order/asc/cols/stats Chula is in the 601-801 range and the university I went to is in the 301-350 range. I did find this article from 2016. Flinders celebrates 50 years with world Top 50 spot "Flinders has climbed 31 places from 77th in 2015 to 46th in 2016" https://news.flinders.edu.au/blog/2016/04/07/flinders-celebrates-50-years-with-world-top-50-spot/ https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/2016/young-university-rankings?page=1# Now why don't you tell us all about your university's ranking assuming you graduated from one?

John Drake Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Chula has started paying a lot more for research published in Q1 journals co-listed in Web of Science. You get 500,000 baht per published article. Thammasat is paying somewhat less: 350,000 I was told. And the cheapos at Mahidol I know are only paying 100,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
