In Europe, it ranks fifth after the universities of Cambridge and Oxford, Imperial College London and ETH Zurich. Thanks to the high quality of education at all TUM locations – including the TUM Campus Heilbronn – regional companies also benefit from highly qualified talent.
The ranking determines which universities, in the opinion of companies, produce the best graduates. For the current edition, more than 12,000 managers in 32 countries who recruit internationally were surveyed. They work in various industries and in companies of different sizes. The ranking is compiled annually by the French consulting firm Emerging on behalf of the British magazine Times Higher Education (THE).
TUM has been one of the world's best universities for years and currently ranks 13th. This puts it in the top five European universities, alongside the University of Cambridge (4th), the University of Oxford (5th), Imperial College London (9th) and ETH Zurich (10th). The University of Oxford and ETH Zurich are partners of TUM Campus Heilbronn in the Joint Global AI Research Hub.
7th Place in Training ‘Digital Leaders’
The fact that TUM prepares its students exceptionally well for the digital economy is also regularly demonstrated by the ‘Digital Leaders in Higher Education’ ranking. TUM currently ranks 7th worldwide in this ranking.
The students themselves are also very satisfied with the study conditions. In the latest ‘CHE University Rankings’, TUM received excellent ratings from its students in numerous subjects.
