Sabancı University once again best in Turkey

Sabancı University was the top Turkish institution in the Emerging Economies University Rankings this year. 

Times Higher Education (THE) revealed the 2020 Emerging Economies University Rankings. The rankings consider universities that are in the advanced emerging market, secondary emerging market, and border-line categories of the FTSE (Financial Times Stock Exchange) Index. This year, universities from 47 countries were included in the ranking. 

Sabancı University was ranked 40th on THE's Emerging Economies University Rankings, becoming the best among the 34 Turkish universities on the list. 

Similar to the World University Rankings, the THE Emerging Economies University Rankings list uses a methodology that covers Teaching, Research, Citations, International Outlook and Industry Income using 13 performance indicators. A key feature is that the "Industry Income" and "International Outlook" categories carry more weight compared to World University Rankings due to the rankings being specific to emerging economies.
