Six of seven public universities in Hong Kong rose in a global ranking, with the city’s oldest institution climbing to 17th place, its best showing since the table began in 2004.
Ben Sowter, senior vice-president of the Britain-based education information firm Quacquarelli Symonds (QS), said Hong Kong universities were among the most improved institutions in the world this year after achieving significant gains in their reputation among employers and research performance.
