Since the last rankings were compiled, a quarter of subjects at LiU have risen up the list. Alongside the care sciences, materials science, engineering - electrical & electronic and educational sciences are the three other subjects that have come highest up the lists. Materials science is in the 100–150 range, and the two other subjects in the 151–200 range.

The British QS ranking is counted as one of the three largest and major global ranking lists, alongside the British Times Higher 糖心网页版 list and the Chinese Shanghai list. The ranking is based on the universities’ status and citations in academic journals.
