The University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh has ranked sixth among all Bangladeshi universities in the Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Ranking 2024.
This is the fourth time ULAB has earned its global impact ranking since 2019, and around 1,963 universities from all over the world participated in the ranking, according to a press release.
ULAB ranked first in Bangladesh in SDG 11 (sustainable cities and communities) and SDG 5 (Gender Equality) categories.
It ranked second in the SDG 17 (partnerships for the goals) category. It has also been ranked in SDG 1 (No Poverty) and SDG 4 (Quality Education) categories.
Nineteen (11 private and 8 public) Bangladeshi universities have been included in this prestigious global ranking.
THE evaluates several aspects of a university’s performance — teaching, research, outreach, and stewardship (faculty, staff, and alumni) — and further assesses universities against the United Nations SDGs.
THE Impact category was introduced in 2019 to give opportunities to teaching universities that do not have the heavy resources of research-intensive universities.
