Featuring 760 Asian universities, our 2023 rankings are the biggest to date.

Peking University takes the top spot this year, with last year’s number one university, National University of Singapore, taking second place.

The rest of the top ten is rounded out by a diverse selection of institutions from across East and South East Asia – including Malaysia, Mainland China and South Korea.

Key indicators used to formulate this year’s rankings include academic and employer reputations, the number of staff holding a PhD, and the percentage of international students. Read more about our methodology here.
