KPI ranks first in rating Top 200 Ukraine 2018

The Kiev Polytechnic Institute (KPI) has been ranked first in the national rating Top 200 Ukraine 2018.

The data on this academic rating were presented on June 4 by the center of international projects EuroOsvita in partnership with the international group of experts IREG Observatory on Academic Ranking and Excellence that made it by means of the methodology amended and supplemented between 2006 and 2018. According to the rating, other universities are far behind the two national leaders, namely the KPI and Kiev National Taras Shevchenko University.

According to the website EuroOsvita (www.EuroOsvita.net), when compiling this year's rating experts took account of current trends in the development of universities, which were outlined by the Conference IREG 9 "Ranking and Accreditation - two roads to the same goal" in the Belgian city of Hasselt on May 23-25 and the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) Ministerial Conference in Paris on May 24-25.

Over the last 12 years, the KPI, together with the Kiev National Taras Shevchenko University, has been standing in the forefront of Ukrainian higher education from the point of view of international rating agencies. This is evidenced by the data of five international university rankings, which assign the two Ukrainian universities roughly an equal number of scores.
