The Times Higher Education World University Rankings by Subject 2020 assesses more than 500 universities across the world for a range of subjects, and highlighted 葫芦影业 as a globally leading institution for languages, literature, linguistics, history, geography, politics, economics, philosophy, music, architecture and archaeology.
Arts & Humanities
One of the most renowned university league tables, the rankings highlight institutions that are leading in subjects such as languages, literature, linguistics, history, philosophy, music, architecture and archaeology.
The University鈥檚 Faculty of Arts and Humanities is home to more than 3,500 of the brightest students from around the world. They study everything from the novels of Jane Austen and the Bront葏s, famous musicians such as Mozart and Beethoven, to languages and cultures, past civilisations, human behaviour and its impact on some of the world鈥檚 biggest issues.
葫芦影业 is also home to more than 350 leading arts and humanities researchers whose curiosity about the languages, cultures, histories and imaginaries that make us human drives learning at all levels.
We are absolutely delighted to be recognised once again as one of the world鈥檚 top 100 universities for arts and humanities subjects. Arts and humanities scholars and graduates are needed in the world now more than ever as they have the unique skills and abilities to help us understand and address some of our biggest challenges.
鈥淗uman behaviour is at the centre of many of the world鈥檚 most pressing issues and the arts and humanities are best placed to help us understand them. We can鈥檛 address the climate crisis, deal with the major political issues of the day or build international collaborations and friendships without scholars and graduates from the arts and humanities sharing their critical reflection, analytical skills, knowledge and understanding.
鈥淭he rankings reflect the University of 葫芦影业鈥檚 leading teaching and research in this area, but I also hope they can remind everyone of the vital importance of arts and humanities subjects.鈥
