Ben Sowter, QS Research Director, said: "Observing performance trends across
over 15,000 university departments enables us to see which factors influence
success. First, an international outlook – both in terms of faculty body and
research relationships – correlates strongly with improved performance. Second,
rising universities received targeted investment from governments for over a
decade. Third, strengthening relationships with industry correlates with better
employment, research, and innovation outcomes."
