Key Role of University Rankings - Insights by Professor Greg Barton, Rector Designate, Deakin University Lancaster University Indonesia
This is where detailed rankings become valuable points of reference. Take Lancaster University and Deakin University , both consistently ranked in the global top 200 of QS ranked universities. Lancaster's placement at 141 and Deakin's at 197 in the 2025 QS global rankings reflects their commitment to international standards of excellence. But their strengths go well beyond these numbers.
Teaching quality and student satisfaction tell an even more compelling story. Deakin has maintained its position as Victoria's top-ranked university for student satisfaction for 15 consecutive years. As a research-intensive university with a global reputation for knowledge creation and innovation, Lancaster ranks 6th among 130 UK universities for learning resources and places joint 10th nationally for undergraduate education in the Complete University Guide 2025.
These achievements reflect a broader truth about modern universities. High-performing institutions established in the latter half of the 20th century, like Lancaster and Deakin , have brought fresh energy and innovation to higher education. They've proven that academic excellence isn't exclusively the domain of centuries-old institutions. Moreover, their success comes from combining rigorous academic standards with a commitment to accessibility and real-world relevance.
This philosophy now extends to Indonesia through Deakin University Lancaster University Indonesia. The new Bandung campus represents more than just a geographic expansion; it's a testament to how world-class education can be both excellent and accessible. By bringing together in Indonesia the best of British and Australian academic traditions, expertise and practice, the university is creating a unique and exceptional educational experience.
When choosing a university, let rankings inform the decision, but don't let them dictate it. The best choice will combine excellence reflected in rankings with alignment to
the personal goals, learning style, and career aspirations. In today's interconnected world, excellence in education knows no boundaries.
