The university earned notable placements in several individual SDG categories. Most prominently, SUTech was ranked among the top 800 universities worldwide in Decent Work and Economic Growth (SDG 8), a recognition of its efforts to support employment-focused education and economic resilience.

Additionally, SUTech placed among the top 1000 universities globally in four key areas: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure (SDG 9), No Poverty (SDG 1), Gender Equality (SDG 5), and Reduced Inequalities (SDG 10). These rankings underscore the university’s commitment to inclusive education, equity, and sustainable progress.

Being featured in the Times Higher Education Impact Rankings is a significant step forward for SU Tech, reinforcing its mission to create positive social change and advance Egypt’s contribution to the global sustainable development agenda.
