UTBM is proud of its dual recognition in the Shanghai 2025 Thematic Ranking (GRAS). For each discipline, the ranking includes only a limited number of the world’s top-performing universities. This achievement is the result of the work of our research teams, a structured partnership policy, and a strong integration of research, innovation, technology transfer, and engineering education.
UTBM’s inclusion in this ranking since 2023 reflects not only the volume of its scientific output but also its high standards and the high level of recognition it has earned in accordance with international standards.
“It is with great humility, but also with genuine pride, that we welcome UTBM’s inclusion in the 2025 edition of the Shanghai Subject Rankings in two disciplines that are central to our scientific identity. For a relatively small institution, being ranked among the world’s top 301–400 institutions is a testament to the strength of our trajectory.”
This achievement is first and foremost the collective work of our entire community: faculty members, researchers, support staff, doctoral candidates, and students. It reflects the relevance, coherence, and clarity of our research activities, as perceived internationally, in an environment where every indicator counts and where recognition is earned over time.
"We recognize how far we have come—which has enabled us to achieve this level of recognition—but we also acknowledge how much further we have to go to consolidate and build on this momentum. This ranking is not an end in itself: it serves as an encouragement to continue our efforts, strengthen our partnerships, and keep scientific rigor and social and environmental responsibility at the heart of our projects."
Congratulations to the entire UTBM community!
