THE Impact Rankings 

are the only global performance tables that assess universities against the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. We use carefully calibrated indicators to provide comprehensive and balanced comparisons across three broad areas: research, outreach, and stewardship.

This first edition includes more than 450 universities from 76 countries.

The metrics were developed in partnership with Vertigo Ventures.

The list is led by New Zealand’s University of Auckland, while Canada’s McMaster University and the University of British Columbia, and the UK’s University of Manchester complete the top three.

Japan is the most-represented nation in the table with 41 institutions, followed by the US with 31 and Russia with 30.
