Recently, the university took a major step toward that goal when it placed in the top 10 nationally and #14 globally in the latest Times Higher Education Interdisciplinary Science Rankings.

Developed in partnership with Schmidt Science Fellows, the rankings assess more than 600 universities worldwide across three performance areas: financial investment, institutional support and research output.

ASU is already ranked the #1 most innovative university by U.S. News & World Report, holding the top spot for 11 consecutive years. Contributing to ASU’s success is its commitment to collaboration across scientific and non-STEM disciplines. The university is a major catalyst for talent development in the Phoenix Metro Area and beyond, greatly contributing to top industries and professions.
