Effective and sustainable innovations: TUD successful in global THE Impact Ranking 2023

Claudia Kallmeier Pressestelle
Technische Universität Dresden

    TU Dresden has improved its position in the THE Impact Ranking 2023 by 13 places compared to the previous year. In the field of "Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure", TU Dresden is ranked 59th worldwide. In 2022, TUD had participated in this ranking for the first time and was directly placed 72nd.

    Based on the United Nations’ 17 global sustainability goals, the renowned British magazine "Times Higher Education" annually examines the impact of universities in these categories for its "THE Impact Ranking". The universities are evaluated based on their commitment to achieving these goals, for instance through research projects, industry cooperation, knowledge transfer to society and individual degree programs.

    TUD participated in the ranking for the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) "Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure", which covers research in fields that are considered significant for sustainable innovations. It evaluates how often research at TU Dresden is cited in patents, how many start-ups emerge and how much third-party research funding the universities receive from industry. Overall, TU Dresden received 94 out of a possible 100 points in this category.

    According to the DFG Funding Atlas, TU Dresden is among the universities with the most third-party funding in Germany. A recent study by the German Economic Institute ranks TU Dresden as the university with the most patents in Germany by a wide margin.
