The University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> at M\u0101noa<\/a> placed in the top 2.5% out of more than 20,000 universities worldwide in the Global 2000 list by the Center for World University Rankings<\/a> released on May 15.<\/p>\n

The flagship campus of the 10-campus UH<\/abbr> System placed No<\/abbr>. 505 out of 20,531 universities ranked. In the U.S. rankings, UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa came in No<\/abbr>. 137.<\/p>\n

According to the Center for World University Rankings, objective indicators were used for its four key pillars in the methodology (education, employability, faculty and research) with no reliance on surveys and university data submissions. In addition, equal emphasis was put on student-related and faculty-related indicators, and 62-million outcome-based data points were used.<\/p>\n

“These rankings cap off a series of recently-released rankings that demonstrate UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa\u2019s excellence in academic programs and research,” UH<\/abbr> M\u0101noa Provost Michael Bruno said. “Our state can take pride knowing that one of the top universities in the world is located right here in Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span>.”<\/p>\n
