MarSU earns global recognition for its commitment to sustainable and inclusive development

Boac, Marinduque, Philippines Marinduque State University (MarSU), under the leadership of Prof. Dr. Diosdado P. Zulueta, proudly makes its debut in the Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings 2025, marking a historic milestone not only for the institution but also for the Province of Marinduque and the MIMAROPA Region.

The THE World University Rankings, established in 2010, is one of the most prestigious global performance assessments for higher education institutions. It evaluates universities based on five key pillars: teaching, research environment, research quality, industry engagement, and international outlook. The ranking aims to provide transparency and insights for students, educators, and policymakers across the globe.

MarSU’s inclusion in this global list is a testament to its growing influence and commitment to academic excellence, research innovation, and global relevance. Most significantly, the university’s placement reflects its consistent efforts in advancing the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)—from promoting quality education, gender equality, and climate action, to building partnerships that empower local and international communities.

This achievement affirms MarSU’s unwavering vision to be a transformative and globally engaged university that fosters inclusive development and sustainable impact. As it joins the ranks of the world’s recognized institutions, MarSU remains steadfast in its mission to shape future leaders who will contribute meaningfully to a better world. #THEGlobalImpact #THEUniRankings
