Universities in Singapore, China and Japan were ranked among the top 25 universities globally in the Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings 2020, the Asian Scientist online portal reported.

Two universities in Singapore -- the National University of Singapore (NUS) and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU) -- were tied for 11th position. NUS retains its ranking from last year, while NTU climbed one spot.

A press release by QS noted that NUS has a better reputation among academics and employers than NTU, while NTU is better known for its smaller class sizes and larger research impact. 

QS ranked 1000 universities from 82 different locations, surveyed 94,000 academics and 44,000 hiring managers and analyzed 11.8 million research papers and 100 million citations.
