QS Star rated institutions in 2014

2014 has been an exciting year for QSIU and particularly for QS Stars.

There are now 230 universities located in 45 countries who participated in QS Stars. More than 60 full audits have been completed in 2014, including two Business School audits. A dozen universities have been through a re-audit process as their previous QS Star rating has expired.

The QS Stars methodology for universities has further developed to include an alternative indicator in the Employability category (campus employer presence) and several categories have been renamed further to a consultation with students and universities. Arts is changed to Arts & Culture, Access is now renamed Inclusiveness and Engagement becomes Social Responsibility.
