“Again, the University’s researchers and academics have done Queensland and Australia proud, cementing Õ¬Äе¼º½’s reputation for world-leading research,” Professor Terry said.

“The ARWU rank is a testament to Õ¬Äе¼º½’s high quality research outputs, including a higher indicator score for publishing in the prestigious Nature and Science journals over the past 5 years.
