Vietnam's higher education ranks among the world's top in 8/11 subject groups.

(Dan Tri) - The prestigious education magazine Times Higher Education (UK) has just announced a ranking of universities in the world based on training groups.

Of the 11 subject groups included in the Times Higher Education (THE) rankings, no Asian university topped any of them. However, overall, THE ’s editorial board assessed that the presence of Asian universities in the rankings is still increasing year by year.

China and Singapore have schools in the top 50 in all 11 subject areas. Japan has schools in the top 50 in 8 subject areas.

The highest ranking of an Asian university is in the business and economics group, where China's Peking University and Tsinghua University are ranked 4th and 6th respectively.

China has 3 universities appearing in the top 10 universities training the highest quality educational research groups in the world, specifically including Peking University, Tsinghua University and Hong Kong University (China).

The National University of Singapore is ranked 9th in the world for engineering. It is also ranked 10th in the world for physical sciences.

Witnessing the appearance of many Asian universities on THE magazine's rankings, Mr. Simon Marginson - Professor of Higher Education at Oxford University (UK) - commented: "In the current educational context, the relative position of Western countries, which are considered to have developed education, will gradually decline.

The reason is not because the quality of education in these countries is getting worse, but because more and more schools are being compared and new names will appear more and more.
