In a statement sent to the Philippine Daily Inquirer, QS said the country’s “specialist strength†in the English language was affirmed in results of its latest World University Rankings by Subject, an index that rates universities across 29 disciplines.
Ateneo de Manila University posted the highest rating of all
Philippine schools, ranking 24th in English language and literature. University of the Philippines ranked 32nd while De La Salle University ranked 44th.
World-renowned universities in the United Kingdom and the United States took the top five spots (in this order): Cambridge, Harvard, Oxford, Yale and University of California Berkeley.
“The specialist strengths of
Philippine universities in English language and literature are clearly shown in these rankings. The country should be proud of their achievements,†Ben Sowter, QS research chief, said in the statement sent to the Inquirer.
