Saveetha Dental College in Top 13 dental colleges in QS World University Ranking
For the first time, any dental institution from India has ranked within the top 15 in the subject of dentistry, in the history of the QS global ranking. Recently, the Saveetha Dental College also garnered international attention when it emerged as the highest-publishing dental institution in the world, dethroning Harvard University’s School of Dental Medicine from the top spot.
Saveetha Dental College has become the first and only institute from India to be ranked among the top 15 dental institutions in the world in QS World Ranking 2023 by subject.
Dr. N. M. Veeraiyan, the Chancellor, said that this achievement was a great source of pride for the institution, its students, and faculty – and also for every dentist and Indian. “QS top ranking would not have been possible but for the tremendous hard work and dedication of our students and faculty members. It serves as a testament to our dedication to providing high-quality education, research, and clinical practices in dentistry. But I am also happy for the entire higher education sector in India as this global ranking will go a long way in inspiring every Indian institution to strive for excellence in its field and will help raise the profile of Indian education as such on the global stage. The ranking will reinforce India’s position as a leading destination for higher education and highlight the potential for Indian institutions to compete with the best in the world,” he said, as reported by News 18.
In the QS World University Rankings by subject, 66 Indian universities cumulatively achieved 355 entries, an 18.7% increase as compared to last year when it was 299. India is the second most represented country in Asia after China. Moreover, many Indian universities have made it to the world's top places to pursue popular subjects, especially in the STEM fields.
