Asia University Ranks 14th in Taiwan, 3rd Among Private Universities, and 1st Among Non-Medical Private Universities in the "QS World University Rankings 2025."

The UK-based higher education survey agency QS (Quacquarelli Symonds) announced in June 2024 the "QS World University Rankings 2025," where Asia University has advanced by 100 places, now positioned in the range of 801-850 globally. This places Asia University as the 14th best university in Taiwan, the 3rd best among private universities, and the top private non-medical university.

Ching-Hsien Hsu, the Research and Development Director of Asia University, noted that out of nearly 3,000 universities evaluated from over a hundred countries, only 1,500 were ranked. Asia University, previously ranked between 901st and 950th globally, has advanced by 100 places this year, landing in the 801-850 range. In the Taiwan ranking section, a total of 26 universities made it to the list this year, with 14 entering the top 1,000, including 11 public universities and 3 private universities, with Asia University ranking as the 3rd best private university. (The top 2 private universities are both medical universities).

The evaluation criteria of QS include academic reputation, employer reputation, student-to-faculty ratio, average citation per paper, and the number of international faculty members and students. In response to changes in the global higher education system, QS adjusted the weighting of academic reputation and student-to-faculty ratio last year and introduced new indicators such as graduate employment rates and alumni influence.

President Jeffrey J.P. Tsai mentioned that in its 23-year history, Asia University, the youngest university in Taiwan, has consistently performed well in various benchmark university rankings domestically and internationally over the past decade, earning recognition for its educational quality. With the increasing number of successful alumni in the corporate sector, Asia University has been consistently favored by employers as the top choice among private universities. Additionally, Asia University places a strong emphasis on students' interdisciplinary capabilities, employability, and high pass rates in national exams and professional certifications. Furthermore, the collaboration with China Medical University- Asia University System (CMU-AU System) provides 26 internship and employment opportunities in healthcare systems and related enterprises, both domestically and overseas, enabling students to seamlessly transition from graduation to employment. These achievements are reflected in the QS rankings. President Tsai expressed optimism about Asia University's potential for further advancement in global university rankings and hopes for continuous growth.
