Ontario Tech University’s Engineering programs recognized on the international stage
July 8, 2020
Dreaming of becoming an engineer? A recent international survey ranks two Ontario Tech University Engineering programs among the best in their subject area within Ontario.
ShanghaiRanking’s 2020 Global Ranking of Academic Subjects placed Ontario Tech’s Mechanical Engineering program among the top five mechanical engineering programs in Ontario. Meanwhile, the university’s Electrical Engineering program ranked among the province’s top 10 electrical engineering programs.
ShanghaiRanking examines more than 4,000 global universities for research quality, extent of international collaboration, and recognitions received by faculty members in a given academic subject. It then ranks the universities in 54 subjects across natural sciences, engineering, life sciences, medical sciences and social sciences. Universities meeting a minimum threshold of research publications are included in the survey.
ShanghaiRanking began publishing Academic Ranking of World Universities by academic subjects in 2009.
