Professor Tim Blackman, Middlesex University Vice-Chancellor, said: “We’re thrilled to be included in the Times Higher Education '150 Under 50' for the first time. This recognition is testament to how we put our students first, with their success at the heart of everything that we do.
“Our first-class teaching by practice-based academics who are experts in their fields, and the impact of our applied research, combine with a diversity and global outlook that make us a truly 21st century university. We are a young university immensely proud of our rich educational roots in London, our state-of-the-art campus in Hendon, and our global reach with three overseas campuses and a network of international partners.”
Middlesex was granted university status by royal assent in 1992. Since then the University has developed campuses in Dubai, Mauritius and Malta, and trusted academic partnerships stretching across the globe.
The Times Higher Education '150 Under 50' 2016 draws upon the same methodology as THE World University Rankings, with 13 performance indicators to examine all the core missions of the modern global university: teaching, research, citations, international outlook and industry income.
This includes the world’s largest invitation-only academic reputation survey and research excellence assessed through the examination of more than 11 million research papers with 51 million citations. Results are calibrated to reflect the special characteristics of younger universities.
