MSU has improved its ranking in the 2025 QS World University Rankings! In the recently published 2025 Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings in Asia, Mindanao State University (MSU) has been ranked 801+ among the top universities in Asia. The QS Asia rankings are based on several factors, including academic reputation, employer reputation, faculty-student ratio, and citations per paper.
