The three Israeli universities that were included in the 2022 report are the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, which ranked 77th globally; the Technion–Israel Institute of Technology, which was placed lower at 83; and the Weizmann Institute of Science, which was also ranked 83.
For the Hebrew University, this was a jump of 11 spots compared to 2021 and the best since 2018. The other two also improved their position, with the Weizmann Institute getting its best score ever since the ranking first began publishing in 2003.
All three institutions improved their standings compared to 2021, attesting to Israel's rising status as an academic powerhouse.
Tel Aviv University, Bar-Ilan University, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, and the University of Haifa were included in the non-ranking part of the report (i.e. beyond the first 100 places).
