We are thrilled to announce that in the results of the international Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings by Subject 2024 published yesterday - in the subject of LAW, our University was ranked 250-300 in the World!

Only two universities in Poland were ranked (slightly) higher than us in the subject of LAW.

It is worth mentioning that this was also our debut in THE WUR ranking. LAW at the University of Gdansk has not yet been included in the THE WUR!
