In 2005 Stony Brook University has again been ranked as one of the top
universities in the world by the Institute for Higher Education in Shanghai.
It marked the second straight year the University has been cited by the
Institute, and the seventh time in less than a year that Stony Brook has
received worldwide or national acclaim.
The University was ranked among the top 152 universities in the world by the
Institute. In addition, Stony Brook was ranked among the top 100
universities in North and Latin America, with the Institute grouping it in
the category of number 58-77. Joining Stony Brook in that grouping were such
institutions as Dartmouth College, the University of Massachusetts and the
University of Virginia.
Stony Brook has also been ranked as the 136th best university in the
world—out of more than 8,300—by the London Times Higher Education
Supplement, in the top 50 in North America, and 10th among U.S. public
universities.
