UNAIR NEWS<\/strong> \u2013 Universitas Airlangga<\/a> (UNAIR) has earned recognition as The Most Improved University in Asia in the 2025 QS World University Rankings. This global milestone reflects the university\u2019s ongoing efforts to strengthen its core academic pillars\u2014teaching, research, and community engagement\u2014each year.<\/p>\n\n

Speaking at the East Java State University Rectors Consortium meeting, UNAIR Vice Rector for Internationalization, Digitalization, and Information, Prof. Dr. Muhammad Miftahussurur, shared insights into UNAIR\u2019s journey toward global prominence. \u201cWe hope to see more collaboration emerge from this consortium. It shouldn\u2019t be about rivalry\u2014this is about teamwork,\u201d he stated on Tuesday, May 27, 2025.<\/p>\n\n

Valuable benchmark, not final objective<\/h5>\n\n

Although international rankings are not the university\u2019s ultimate goal, Prof. Miftah underscored their importance as benchmarks. \u201cGlobal rankings provide a valuable perspective and create a framework for improvement,\u201d he said. These rankings also help attract international students and faculty, encouraging cross-cultural learning and academic exchange.<\/p>\n\n

Prof. Miftah also highlighted UNAIR\u2019s Smartversity vision\u2014an approach that promotes intelligent, cross-disciplinary thinking and a commitment to social transformation. \u201cThat\u2019s why we incorporate globally recognized rankings such as QS (WUR and AUR by subject), THE (WUR and AUR), ARWU, appliedHE, and the national performance metrics (IKU),\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n\n

He urged fellow state universities to treat ranking indicators as tools for increasing their real-world impact. At UNAIR, he said, rankings serve both as inputs for planning and as indicators of outcomes. \u201cAgain, rankings are not the final objective. They\u2019re a strategic tool to measure and enhance our contributions to society,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n\n
