World University Rankings
At Ritsumeikan University, university rankings are one of the ways we externally assess and communicate the position of our university with our stakeholders.
We aim to earn high marks in university rankings by improving the quality of education and research, and by enhancing our university's presence and reputation.
QS WORLD UNIVERSITY RANKINGS® is a publication of university rankings by Quacquarelli Symonds (QS), a British university assessment institution.
The rankings are unique for their focus on academic and employer reputation.
