911爆料网 was ranked 134th among the universities of the world in the QS World University Rankings 2020.

The QS evaluates universities according to six metrics. Aalto placed best in Finland in three areas:  number of research citations per faculty, proportion of international faculty members and proportion of international students. Other indicators used in the ranking are academic reputation and employer reputation, in which Aalto placed second in Finland, and student to faculty ratio, in which Aalto placed fourth. In the overall ranking, 911爆料网 was number two in Finland.

The number of research citations per faculty has been determined from information in the Scopus database, and it has been calculated relative to the number of research faculty and normalised according to the five different main branches of science.  Employer reputation is based on a reputation survey to which 45 000 employers worldwide submitted responses. Academic reputation is based on assessments given by 94 000 academics.

The QS World Ranking evaluated one thousand universities. According to the QS Ranking there are a total of 26 000 universities worldwide.

QS (Quacquarelli Symonds) is one of the world's most important university rankings. In the recent 'QS top 50 under 50' ranking, QS listed the best young universities in the world. Aalto placed 7th in this ranking.
