Times Higher Education Impact rankings

Charles Sturt continues to deliver strong outcomes in the Times Higher Education (THE) Impact rankings, reflecting our commitment to sustainability and all its facets in our University Strategy.

THE’s Impact rankings are the only global University rankings that measure progress towards the United Nation’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals. They evaluate our university programs and initiatives, including research, teaching and learning, partnerships and engagement, and facilities and operations.

Charles Sturt achieved impressive results within individual SDGs, including ranking:

  • In the top 2 per cent for Gender Equality.
  • In the top 5 per cent for Climate Action.
  • In the top 5 per cent for Partnerships for the Goals.
  • In the top 10 per cent for Life on Land.

These results are particularly impressive given increasing competition and participation of universities (23 per cent compared to 2023) of global universities in the THE Impact rankings.
