Six discipline areas also placed in the Australian Top 10.
Released today, the Times Higher Education (THE) subject rankings measure the performance of research-intensive universities across teaching, research environment, research quality, industry and international outlook.
Education (85th) has maintained its place in the top 100 globally for the sixth consecutive year, while Psychology (88th) has broken into the top 100 for the first time.
Arts and Humanities (fifth), Psychology (sixth), Education (eighth), Business and Economics (eighth), Clinical and Health (ninth), and Computer Science (eighth) also ranked in the top 10 in Australia. The University placed in the top 200 globally for every discipline.
Macquarie University Vice-Chancellor Professor S Bruce Dowton says, “Macquarie University is committed to research excellence, to delivering transformative curriculum and teaching, and to setting its students up for success.
“To perform strongly across all disciplines reflects this ethos and gives the University a new benchmark from which we will continue to grow.”
THE subject rankings are based on the same performance indicators used for its overall university rankings. The methodology is carefully recalibrated for each discipline and weightings adjusted accordingly for each subject.
The introduction of three new indicators – research strength, research excellence and research influence – has contributed to Macquarie University’s improved performance.
The 2024 edition of THE’s rankings included 1904 universities across 108 countries and regions.
The news follows the release of THE’s 2024 World University Rankings earlier this month, in which Macquarie University placed 10th in Australia and 175th globally.
