National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST) has risen to even greater prominence as per the latest subject-wise rankings (2016) by Quacquarelli Symonds (QS), UK.
According to the details, NUST now stands 215th (the previous position being 271) in the field of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, and 272nd (from last year 338) in the discipline of Computer Science and Information Systems.
It is worth mentioning here that thousands of universities from all over the world are considered for evaluation. However, only 894 universities made it to the final ranking list. Over a hundred million citations / attributions were analyzed for around 14,000 programs.
The methodology for evaluation combines analysis from QS Global Employer and Academic Surveys with bibliometric data from Elsevier’s Scopus database (www.iu.qs.com). This singular achievement is a result of stringent quality assurance regime of the University.
