Washington D.C.-based American Caldwell has released its annual Global University Visibility ranking, and Purdue University has made the list. The ranking lists 100 universities from around the world based on categories, including news mentions, public interest and social media.
The higher education marketing firm also included website visitors, web references, and online footprint in its calculations, which it said are based on publicly available data.
Purdue is ranked No. 10 on the 2023 list and is No. 3 among U.S. public universities. It is the only Indiana higher education institution on the list.
“This latest affirmation of Purdue’s renowned reputation worldwide should not come as a surprise to anyone,” Purdue President Mung Chiang said in a news release. “It is exciting for Purdue to be recognized for excellence at scale, as we continue to strive to be the most consequential public university in creating, disseminating and deploying knowledge in areas making the most significant difference in society.”
Purdue received its highest marks in news mentions, public interest and website visitors. The university said its website had nearly 15 million visits, the seventh most of any university. Its lowest marks came from the online footprint category.
Harvard University tops the list, followed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford University, Cornell University and the University of Toronto.
