The Shanghai Jiao Tong University (China), internationally recognised as the world's leading reference in university assessment, has today published the results of its Global Ranking of Academic Subjects (GRAS) 2024, results that once again endorse the educational prestige of the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV), included among the 500 best universities in the world in a total of 19 disciplines, three more than in the previous year's edition.

Thus, for the Shanghai ranking, UPV is among the 75 best universities in the world in Civil Engineering -where the prestigious indicator also highlights it, alone, as the best university in Spain-Food Science and Technology and Agricultural Sciences.

World Top 200 in 6 disciplines

Likewise, Jiao Tong University includes the UPV in the world's top 200 in 6 disciplines. In addition to the three mentioned above, it is worth adding Mathematics, Mechanical Engineering and Management.

The UPV's presence in GRAS 2024 is multiplied if we look at the global top 300, where the institution directed by José E. Capilla appears in a total of 14 disciplines, adding Chemistry, Telecommunications Engineering, Instrumental Sciences and Technologies, Biomedical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Energy Science and Engineering, Veterinary Sciences, and Business Administration and Management to the previous ones.

Top 3 nationally in 10 areas ... and leader in 6 of them

In addition to the solo leadership in Civil Engineering, GRAS 2024 recognises the UPV as the best university in Spain in 5 more disciplines: Mechanical Engineering (tied with Carlos III and Politècnica de Madrid), Biomedical Engineering (tied with Complutense and Universitat de Barcelona), Chemical Engineering (sharing first place with Politècnica de Catalunya, Universidad del País Vasco and Universidad de Zaragoza), Energy Science and Engineering (together with Autònoma de Barcelona, Politècnica de Catalunya and Universidad del País Vasco) and Management (leading together with Ramón Llull and Universidad de Navarra).

Best polytechnic in Spain according to general ranking

On a general level, it should be noted that the Shanghai Jiao Tong University also publishes, every 15 August, its reference ranking, the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), which, in its last publication less than 3 months ago, once again included the UPV for the 20th consecutive year in the global top 500.

Not surprisingly, the UPV is the only Spanish polytechnic among the top 500 universities in the world. The podium is completed by the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), ranked 601-700, and the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), ranked 801-900.
