Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology in the world top 15<\/h1>\n

Good performance of Swiss universities in the latest QS World University Ranking, with ETH 8th and EPFL 14th for internationality and research citations<\/em><\/h3>\n

Good performance of Swiss universities in the latest QS World University Ranking, all in keeping with a long tradition.
\nETH Zurich was ranked eighth worldwide. It was thus crowned the best university in continental Europe for the 14th consecutive year. However, it dropped two places in the rankings compared to 2020.
\nETH Z\u00fcrich’s solidity and ranking is due above all to its international outlook, the high number of citations in research and its good reputation both in academia and with employers. Overall, ETH Zurich scored 95.4 points out of a maximum of 100.<\/p>\n
