Our rankings

We've achieved an enviable reputation for research and teaching excellence in a short 60 years and are ranked among the world's top universities.

Understanding university rankings

Monash University draws on trusted and widely recognised publications to report on its rankings.

Global rankings assess how universities perform across key areas such as employment outcomes, staff-to-student ratio, research collaborations, and teaching and research reputation. Whilst different publications use different criteria, scores for each performance measure are calculated, combined and weighted to provide a clear and transparent comparison between institutions.
