UIR Tops National Rankings for Commitment to Sustainable Development
Rabat – The International University of Rabat (UIR) has secured the highest national ranking in the 2025 Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings, marking its third consecutive year at the top among Moroccan universities.
The rankings, released on Wednesday, reflect the performance of 2,526 universities across 130 countries and regions in meeting the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
UIR shares the first-place position in Morocco with Ibn Tofail University.
The recognition shows the university's efforts in areas such as partnerships for development (SDG 17), decent work and economic growth (SDG 8), peace and strong institutions (SDG 16), and sustainable production and consumption (SDG 12).
This achievement stems from the daily work of the university's faculty, staff, and students, whose projects, research, and outreach initiatives align closely with the UN's global roadmap for sustainability.
The university has gradually anchored the SDGs into its academic priorities, public engagement, and institutional planning.
More than a place for instruction, UIR positions itself as a space for applied knowledge and impact.
From supporting inclusive economic models to fostering peace-centered governance research, the university builds links between global goals and local action.
Earlier this month, UIR welcomed nearly 3,700 students from across Morocco for a two-day open house.
The large attendance bears witness to the growing appeal of the university and strengthens its growing reputation as a top-tier institution nationally and internationally. Tags: EducationMoroccoMorocco educationUIR
