The Côte d’Azur University (UCA) maintains its place in the top 500 of world universities in the prestigious Shanghai 2024 ranking. The university stands out in several disciplines, including mathematics and physics. “This result reflects the dynamism of Côte d’Azur University’s research, the quality of its scientific output, and its international influence. Congratulations to all the staff of the Côte d’Azur University laboratories,” rejoiced Jeanick Brisswalter, President of Côte d’Azur University.
A strategic positioning
The UCA ranks in the 401-500 group, a position shared with the University of Rennes. As the 17th French university, the UCA is ahead of several regional institutions like those in Nantes or Toulouse. Despite increased competition, the Côte d’Azur University continues to make its presence felt in a demanding international environment.
Strengths in sciences
The UCA particularly stands out in key disciplines. Mathematics and earth sciences rank in the 101-150 range. Physics follows closely with a ranking between 151-200. Ecology, biological sciences, as well as medical technologies and pharmacy also hold respectable positions, ranging between 201-300.
The rise of French universities
Beyond the UCA, the 2024 ranking highlights a general progression of French universities. Paris-Saclay reaches 12th place worldwide, while other institutions also climb in the rankings. This positive trend reinforces the reputation of the French university model on an international scale.
For the UCA, maintaining its place in the Top 500 world ranking is more than a symbol. It reflects a continuous commitment to academic and scientific excellence. The Côte d’Azur University, through its advances in exact sciences and medical technologies, demonstrates its ability to rank among the best.
