Finland Young University / Institution Rankings 2025
We are proud to present the Young University/Institution Rankings, which evaluates the achievements of young universities and institutions established in the past 30 years and determines their place in the global scientific community. This ranking goes beyond universities to include research institutes, companies, and hospitals where scientific work and innovations are produced. In today’s scientific world, research institutes, advanced technology companies, and healthcare institutions have become significant players in science and innovation. Therefore, this ranking, evaluated from a broad perspective, represents a sufficient time frame of 30 years to showcase the development trajectory and scientific achievements of an institution. Our analysis aims to objectively reveal the strengths and weaknesses of young institutions, helping them to shape their future strategies and formulate their policies. Young University/Institution Rankings serves as a reliable guide to highlight institutions' global scientific achievements while providing a comprehensive assessment of scientific performance.
