<p>Congratulations once again to <a title="Trinity College Dublin" href="http://www.tcd.ie" target="_blank">Trinity College Dublin</a> for increasing its ranking in the latest <a title="Times Higher Education" href="http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/" target="_blank">Times Higher Education-QS (THE-QS)</a> world university rankings to 43rd in the world, up six places from last year. The college is now ranked 13th in Europe. Once again, this is a great achievement by <a title="Trinity College Dublin" href="http://www.tcd.ie" target="_blank">Trinity</a> and reflects its continuing pursuit of excellence.</p>
<p>In a <a title="Trinity College Communications Office" href="http://www.tcd.ie/Communications/news/pressreleases/pressRelease.php?headerID=1295&amp;pressReleaseArchive=2010" target="_blank">post on the TCD website</a>, TCD Provost, Dr John Hegarty said: “Our stated ambition was to be at the front rank of world universities and among the top 50 globally.  We have achieved that in a relatively short period of time and this year’s ranking of 43rd place has surpassed that original goal”.</p>
<p>He added, “Such a high ranking is an outstanding achievement for Trinity and reflects the quality of our undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and programmes, the high recognition by employers of our graduates across the world, and our reputation for excellence in research and scholarship by our international peers”.</p>
<p>Well done to all at Trinity.</p>
