University of Toronto just beat every other Canadian school in global ranking

The University of Toronto has once again been crowned Canada's top post-secondary institution in a new global ranking.

U of T placed 22nd overall in a new Times Higher Education ranking, which listed the institution among the World's Best Universities and Schools for Graduate Jobs in 2027.

The annual Global Employability University Ranking and Survey (GEURS), produced by Emerging, includes 300 institutions from across 40 countries, and hails itself as the only international university and school ranking based on employers' views.

The findings were shaped by over 170,000 votes from more than 15,600 university employees, and featured 14 Canadian institutions this year, including eight in Ontario.

U of T was ranked the 22nd-best school worldwide, the 11th-best school in North America, and the best overall in Canada. It's just the latest accolade for the institution, which regularly lands itself placement on lists of the world's best schools.

Other Ontario schools in the latest ranking include McMaster University (#86 worldwide, #4 in Canada). University of Waterloo (#95 worldwide, #6 in Canada), University of Ottawa (#168 worldwide, #8 in Canada), Queen's University (#188 worldwide, #9 in Canada), York University (#237 worldwide, #12 in Canada), Western University (#250 worldwide, #13 in Canada), and Toronto Metropolitan University (#294 worldwide, #14 in Canada).
