Nanyang Technological University (NTU) has moved up two places to be ranked No. 40 in the latest Nature Index Global, a ranking of science research papers by Nature, one of the world's most prestigious specialist research journals.


This makes NTU the highest-ranked Singapore institution on the Index ahead of National University of Singapore at 42nd, and the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*Star) at 107th.


NTU is also ahead of University College London, Tohoku University in Japan, Pennsylvania State University and Duke University.


NTU's strong performance contributed to Singapore's high global standing in research, which went up to 15th from 17th when the Index was first released last year.
