TUM ranked 7th for the training of digital leaders

Klaus Becker Corporate Communications Center
Technische Universität München

    The Technical University of Munich (TUM) is one of the universities whose graduates have the greatest impact on the digital economy worldwide. This is the result of the latest Digital Leaders in Higher Education rankings, in which TUM placed number 7. In the fields of Computer Science and Digital Entrepreneurship, it is again ranked 4th.

    Which universities are the best at training their students to work with digital technologies? Which graduates contribute to the innovative strength of the digital economy? Where did the digital leaders of large companies and start-ups study?

    To find out, the consulting firm Emerging identified the university degrees of 150,000 digital professionals working for the world's most innovative companies. In addition, 2,000 managers, specialists and start-up founders in digital sectors were asked about the best degree programs and graduates.

    At 7th place, TUM is once again among the top 10 in the Digital Leaders in Higher Education rankings, the only university in the European Union to do so.

    In the fields of Computer Science and Digital Entrepreneurship, TUM is ranked 4th, thus belonging to the top quartet alongside the University of Cambridge, Harvard University and the University of Oxford and MIT, respectively. It placed 9th in the Digital Transformation Management field of study.

    Other rankings also demonstrate that TUM optimally prepares its students for the professional world. In the Global University Employability Ranking, for which around 13,000 managers in more than 30 countries are surveyed, TUM holds the 13th position. In the CHE University Rankings, students regularly give very good ratings for the study conditions and the courses on offer. The QS Best Student Cities Ranking ranks Munich 4th as a location for studying abroad.
