From Middle Euphrates Technical University to the Ranks of Leading Arab Universities: A Steady Advance Towards Regional Academic Excellence
In a continuous academic and scientific competition involving 269 Arab universities, Middle Euphrates Technical University has not merely participated; rather, it has achieved a notable presence in the British Times Higher Education (THE) Arab University Rankings 2027, securing a position in the 201+ band and affirming its growing standing as a significant institution in technical education across the Arab region.
At the national level, the results are even more indicative of the university’s progress. It ranked sixth among 20 public universities and 30th among 60 universities, including public, private, and Kurdistan Region universities. This advancement reflects the growing maturity of its academic and research performance.
The Times Higher Education Arab University Rankings are regarded as one of the most prominent and rigorous regional university rankings. They are based on a comprehensive set of criteria assessing the quality of teaching, the academic environment, the volume and impact of scientific research, international outlook, and the level of regional influence and development.
This achievement represents the culmination of the university’s steady efforts to strengthen its academic standing. It also reflects the continued support of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, particularly the Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research and the Ministry’s Undersecretaries, in addition to the exceptional efforts of the University Presidency and its academic and administrative staff in developing educational and research programs.
In this regard, the University President, Prof. Dr. Hassan Latif Al-Zubaidi, commended the efforts of all university personnel, including faculty members, administrators, and researchers, affirming that the university will continue moving forward with confidence towards achieving further accomplishments and raising Iraq’s profile in international academic forums.
