Cambridge breaks into world's top three in prestigious uni rankings
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"The University of Oxford has secured the top position in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2026 for an unprecedented tenth consecutive year, leading a strong performance by UK institutions. The prestigious list also saw the University of Cambridge rise to joint third place from fifth in 2025, while Imperial College London climbed one spot to eighth. In total, 11 UK universities featured within the global top 10."
The Independent requests donations to fund on-the-ground reporting across reproductive rights, climate change, and Big Tech and to produce documentaries like 'The A Word' highlighting American women fighting for reproductive rights. Donations enable investigations such as the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and the continued ability to send journalists to present multiple perspectives. The Independent remains free of paywalls and relies on voluntary support to sustain quality journalism. The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2026 place Oxford first for a tenth consecutive year, with Cambridge rising to joint third and Imperial College London moving to eighth, reflecting strong UK performance.
