Taylor’s University is ranked #272 in QS World University Rankings 2027 and #20 globally in QS Tourism and Hospitality 2026, the subject that anchors its global brand.

  • QS World University Rankings 2027: #272 globally, #5 in Malaysia
  • Collegedunia Study Abroad 2026: #565 globally, #7 in Malaysia
  • QS Hospitality and Leisure Management 2026: #26 globally, inside the world top 30
  • QS Asia University Rankings 2026: #27 in Asia, top private university in Southeast Asia for five years running

Reading the rank pattern: Taylor’s strongest signal is its #30 world position in Hospitality. By contrast, IIT Bombay sits at #134 in QS World 2027 on engineering-led prestige, but no Indian university breaks the global top 50 for hospitality, so the two compare on different axes. For an Indian student choosing hotel management, culinary studies or international hospitality at scale, the rank pattern points to Taylor’s as a stronger subject-led pick than its #272 overall first reads.
