Nanyang Technological University (NTU) has improved its ranking - moving up 10 places to 76th worldwide in the latest 2013-2014 Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings.
This is NTU's third straight year of progressing up the rankings. Since 2010, NTU has moved up 98 positions.
The National University of Singapore (NUS) has also improved its ranking - from 29th last year to 26th this year.
Times Higher Education World University Rankings uses 13 separate performance indicators to reflect a university's strengths in five areas - Teaching, Research, Citation, Industry Income and International Outlook.
And for the first time, NTU is ranked first in the world under the Industry Income indicator. Last year, NTU was ranked 15th for this performance indicator.
This indicator measures a university's knowledge-transfer activity based on the research income it attracts from industry, scaled against the number of academic staff.
