Coventry was recognised for its global reach, moving up four places to be ranked 29th in the international students metric, in rankings that measure how internationally attractive a university is to the students.

The QS rankings rate universities based on measures such as: academic reputation including teaching and research quality, their global outlook, and how highly regarded the institution’s graduates are among employers.

Professor John Latham CBE, Coventry University Vice-Chancellor, said: “I am delighted that the continued dedication of our staff to foster a global outlook has been recognised and received another boost from this highly-regarded league table. We have students from more than 150 different nationalities studying at the Group’s six campuses in Coventry, London and Scarborough.”
