QS university rankings expose regional disparities in Pakistan's higher education

Eighteen Pakistani universities are featured in the QS World University Rankings 2027, with Quaid-i-Azam University (QAU) as the top-ranked institution. No university entered the global top 350, and regional disparities were evident, with Punjab and Islamabad dominating while Sindh and Balochistan had limited representation. QAU and NUST declined in rankings, while PIEAS improved.
