Murdoch University Ranking for 2024

Murdoch University, established in 1973 in Perth, Western Australia, has built a reputation as a respected institution of higher learning. While it has gained recognition for its academic programmes, describing it as "among the top universities globally" may be an overstatement.

Murdoch University has shown varied performance across different global university rankings in recent years. In 2024, the institution demonstrated mixed results: it was ranked 431st in the QS World University Rankings, 534th by US News & World Report's Global Universities list, and made a notable improvement to 351st in the Times Higher Education (THE) rankings. This represented significant progress in the US News & World Report and THE rankings compared to 2023, where Murdoch was placed 673rd and 401st respectively. The improvement is even more pronounced when looking back to 2022, particularly in the THE rankings where the university jumped from 501st position. However, the QS rankings tell a slightly different story, with Murdoch's position fluctuating from 551st in 2023 to 431st in 2024, and then slightly declining to 436th in the 2025 edition. These diverse outcomes across different ranking systems highlight the complexity of assessing a university's global standing.

The institution offers a diverse array of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes across various disciplines. Murdoch is particularly renowned for its veterinary science programme, which is one of only a few in Australia. Other areas of strength include environmental science, marine biology, and renewable energy studies.
