Birmingham and the Midland’s best to worst universities have been published in an annual league table: The Times and The Sunday Times Good University Guide 2023. This reveals the city and region’s 19 universities and their ranking.
The league table encompasses data including graduate prospects, degree results, research quality, and student satisfaction and experience. According to these indicators, The University of Warwick topped the local list, and even made it to ninth place on the UK list.
Carry on reading to find out how Birmingham and the Midland’s other 18 universities ranked in the academic league table:
1. University of Warwick - National rank 9
The FAB — Warwick’s new Faculty of Arts Building — makes a commitment to interdisciplinary collaboration within the university’s arts and humanities departments. An architecturally striking addition to the university’s 750-acre campus, its light-filled teaching and learning spaces and modern facilities are designed to inspire creativity and innovation.
2. Loughborough University - National rank 11
Loughborough — renowned for its sporting success — proves once again that it has brains as well as brawn, ranking 11th in our academic table overall. Missing out on the top ten spot it held last year by the narrowest of margins is likely to rankle at an institution where competitive spirit abounds.
3. University of Birmingham - National rank 20
Outstanding research has sent the University of Birmingham shooting up The Times rankings and it was shortlisted for our University of the Year award.
4. University of Nottingham - National rank 30
Prospective students attending Nottingham’s open days receive what the university claims to be the world’s first microprospectus. A QR code takes them to key resources online, saving an estimated 72 tonnes of paper and more than 18,000kg of CO2. It reveals an internationally-minded university in the throes of a new phase of growth.
