Dr Ashwin Fernandes, VP – Strategic and International Engagement, QS, said: "The QS Arab University Rankings 2027 show excellence is spreading well beyond a handful of higher education systems. Saudi Arabia and the UAE continue to set the pace at the top, but some of the strongest momentum this year comes from further afield: Morocco now has two universities in the top 100, Oman's private universities are climbing quickly, and Palestine achieves its highest-ranked university ever."
