QS World University Rankings is an annual publication of university rankings by Quacquarelli Symonds (QS).
 Previously known as "Times Higher Education–QS World University Rankings", the publisher had collaborated with "Times Higher Education magazine" ("THE") to publish its international league tables from 2004 to 2009 before both started to announce their own versions.
 QS then chose to still use the pre-existing methodology while "Times Higher Education" adopted a new methodology.
 The QS system now comprises the global overall and subject rankings (which name the world's top universities for the study of 46 different subjects and five composite faculty areas), alongside five independent regional tables (Asia, Latin America, Emerging Europe and Central Asia, the Arab Region, and BRICS).
 It is the only international ranking to have received International Ranking Expert Group (IREG) approval, and is viewed as one of the most widely read of its kind, along with "Academic Ranking of World Universities" and "Times Higher Education World University Rankings".
 However, allocating undue weight to subjective indicators and having highly fluctuating results are its major criticisms.

 In 2015, the Times Higher Education World University Rankings ranked it the 135th best university in the world and the seventh best in the Nordics.

 The publication currently includes global league tables for institutions and a whole and for a selection of individual subjects, alongside independent regional "Greater China Ranking" and "Macedonian HEIs Ranking".
