Panjab University in QS world university rankings 2022

In the Quacquarelli Symonds World University Rankings 2022, Panjab University (PU) has once again failed to enter the top 1,000 universities list. The results were announced on Wednesday. This year, PU was rated in the 1,001-1,200 range, and it was in the same spot last year.

Academic reputation, employer reputation, faculty-student ratio, citations per professor, international faculty ratio, and international student ratio are among the six measures used by QS to rank institutions throughout the globe. In total, 35 Indian universities were included in the final count.

According to the QS rankings, the university has a 4.6 professor-to-student ratio and 15.1 citations per faculty ratio. It has a 5.2 score in academic reputation and a 3.6 score in the employer reputation criteria. PU has a score of 1.1 in the international student ratio.
