Traditionally, the Global 2000 list, which gathers the world's top universities, is published in the May-June period. In this year's edition of the list compiled by the Center for World University Rankings, NCBJ continues to hold a high 7th place among Polish universities and ranks in the top 4.1% of universities in the world.

Ranking jest przygotowywany na podstawie szeregu wskaźników. Są nimi:

The 2025 edition of the CWUR ranking ranked 21462 institutions from around the world. Despite the fact that 60% of the total rating is related to the quality of education, academic staff and careers of graduates, the National Center for Nuclear Research, where only doctoral programs are conducted, has maintained a high position among universities for many years. According to this year's list, NCBJ is in the top 4.1% of institutions and maintains its 7th place among universities in Poland.

We sincerely congratulate our scientists, whose successes result in our institute being ranked so high in the world!
