Bandung, itb.ac.id - In a bid to strengthen its academic and scientific standing in Indonesia, Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) has achieved top-tier recognition in scientific reputation based on SCIVAL and SINTA data. This accomplishment is supported by ITB's high scores in "Top Tier (Q1) Publications/Faculty" and the highest number of citations per faculty member, demonstrating the excellence and impact of the research conducted at the institution.

ITB's success is closely linked to its productive collaborations with renowned universities worldwide, including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Oxford, and the University of Cambridge.
