More Than Our Rank
While QUT scores well across a variety of global and national university ranking exercises, we also excel in ways that these rankings do not detect, ways that are nevertheless highly valued by our staff, students and the community that sustains us.
As a university committed to equality, diversity and inclusion, and responsible research assessment, we believe it is important to acknowledge the limitations of global rankings. That's why QUT is pleased to participate in the international More Than Our Rank initiative, which provides an opportunity for academic institutions to highlight the many and various ways they serve the world that are not reflected in their ranking position.
Rhodes Scholarships
Rhodes is one of the oldest and most prestigious international graduate scholarship programs in the world. It awards scholarships to students selected from 30 countries each year, including one annual Queensland scholarship.
Rhodes Scholarships provide opportunities for outstanding all-round students to study at the University of Oxford.
