University of Malaya (UM) has once again stunned the nation by placing 22nd overall in the category of Engineering & Technology in the QS World University Rankings by Subject.
Delving a little deeper into the latest addition of arguably the world's best known rankings curated by Quacquarelli Symonds, universities were ranked by specific subjects, such as chemical engineering, medicine and more. The honour of being Malaysia's highest ranking university however, goes to Taylor's University for the subject of Hospitality & Leisure Management, coming in at no.21 worldwide, an improvement of 7 places from 2017.

Additionally, branch campuses located in Malaysia fared extremely well. Monash University finished joint 29th worldwide for the subject of medicine.
