World Rankings Topped by SHTM
The SHTM continues to remain in the upper echelons of international rankings, claiming the top spot in the "Hospitality and Tourism Management" category of ShanghaiRanking's Global Ranking of Academic Subjects 2024.

This is the eighth consecutive year in which the SHTM has been recognised as the world's No. 1 by ShanghaiRanking, a globally respected institution. The School won first place in 2017, the first time the Ranking included the "Hospitality and Tourism Management" academic subject category, and has held the top spot ever since.

ShanghaiRanking's annual Academic Ranking of World Universities, first published in 2009, is regarded as one of the most influential and widely followed university classifications, alongside the QS World University Rankings and the Times Higher Education World University Rankings.

Earlier this year, the SHTM was recognised as world No. 1 in the 2023/24 Field-Based Rankings of the University Ranking by Academic Performance Research Laboratory. The School has won first place globally in the "Commerce, Management, Tourism and Services" category for seven years in a row.

The SHTM also took top spot in the "Hospitality and Leisure Management" subject area in the 2024 QS World University Rankings in Asia, highlighting the School's pioneering position in supporting the hospitality and tourism industry, a key driver of socio-economic growth.

The School is very honoured to be recognised internationally as a world-leading hospitality and tourism management school. These rankings confirm the SHTM's outstanding reputation and commitment to global excellence in hospitality and tourism education and research and are a ringing endorsement of its visionary leadership, dedicated researchers, innovative educational approach and trail-blazing graduates.
