Two Greek universities were placed among the the world’s best 500 in the QS Top Universities Guide (TUG).
MIT was placed first while Harvard University and the University of Cambridge second and third respectively.
The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki was placed in the positions 471-480 and the University of Crete in 491-500. Seeing two Greek institutions in a list with the world’s top universities shows that, despite its structural problems, the academic community in Greece is resisting the financial crisis.
The QS Top Universities Guide (TUG) is the official publication of QS World University Rankings and a result of annual research conducted by QS on the best universities, with commentary on the recent trends in global higher education.
