The 2024 edition of the QS World University Rankings, published on June 27, 2023, places Sapienza 134th in the world, the best result ever achieved by our University in this ranking, and moves up to 2nd place in Italy after the Politecnico di Milano (123rd). This puts Sapienza at the top of the generalist universities, followed by the University of Bologna in third place (154th).

In particular, Sapienza ranked first in Italy in two new parameters that reflect the quality of our University's services and the value of its research: Employment Outcomes (1st in Italy and 101st in the world), which measures the employment rate and career prospects of its graduates on the labour market; and International Research Network (1st in Italy and 33rd in the world), which measures the internationalisation rate of  University's scientific research activities.

Sapienza also ranks among the top 100 universities in the world in two other indicators: 74th for its academic reputation and 79th for its commitment to sustainability.

The QS World University Rankings are published by the British agency Quacquarelli Symonds and are among the most important in the international arena. This year's edition includes 1,500 universities in 104 countries.
