Galgotias University ranks among top global institutions in QS Rankings 2026 for computer science

Galgotias University has steadily evolved over the years as a growing contributor to technology-focused education in India, and its recent recognition in the Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings 2026 by subject (Computer Science and Information Systems) reflects this ongoing journey. The ranking is not just a milestone, but a result of decades of consistent effort toward building a strong academic and research ecosystem.

In the 2026 rankings, Galgotias University has been placed in the 601–650 band globally for Computer Science and Information Systems. Within India, it is ranked 11th among private universities and 30th among Government and Private universities in India in this subject area.

These outcomes indicate gradual progress and a strengthening presence in the national and global academic landscape.

This recognition has been shaped by a sustained focus on academic quality, industry-aligned curriculum design, and a Student-Centered Active Learning Ecosystem. Over the years, the university has worked to expand its capabilities in emerging areas such as artificial intelligence, data science, cybersecurity, and software engineering, aligning its programs with evolving industry and societal needs.

The achievement also reflects the collective efforts of faculty, students, and institutional partners and industry collaborations in nurturing an environment that values innovation, collaboration, and continuous improvement. With the global demand for technology talent continuing to grow, Galgotias University aims to further build on this foundation and contribute meaningfully to the development of a future-ready workforce and India’s knowledge economy.

This ranking by subject makes the Galgotias University’s Computer Science and Information Systems the no 2nd ranked amongst private universities in Uttar Pradesh, which is not only an achievement for Galgotias University but also a matter of pride for the state of Uttar Pradesh, which is becoming a Global knowledge Destination. Uttar Pradesh is not only attracting world-class universities but is also set to open one of Asia’s largest airports in Jewar (close to Galgotias University) set to be inaugurated soon. The Noida International Airport will be a big factor in boosting the industry ecosystem, and will create several jobs in the area.

Mr Suneel Galgotia said, “Being recognized in the QS World University Rankings by Subject 2026 for Computer Science and Information Systems is a meaningful moment for Galgotias University. More than the recognition, it reflects the journey and the efforts that have shaped it over the years. This is not the outcome of a single milestone, but the result of a sustained commitment to building a strong, quality academic ecosystem,” Dr Dhruv Galgotia said. “This recognition is a reflection of the collective commitment of our students, faculty, and researchers. It has been built over the years through consistent effort, quiet perseverance, and a shared belief in doing meaningful work. While we take pride in this moment, we remain grounded in the understanding that this is only a step in a much larger journey. There is still much to accomplish, and Galgotias University will continue striving to improve, and contribute with purpose.”
