Since the Times Higher Education (THE) supplement and Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) began the formal THE-QS World University Rankings in 2004, RMIT has consistently ranked in the top 10 universities in Australia (top 3 in Victoria).
According to the new QS World University Rankings since 2010, RMIT is ranked as a five star university (specifically in the areas of: employability, teaching, internationalisation, engagement, specialisation and facilities). It is also ranked in the top 100 universities in the World in the areas of: accounting and finance, communication and media studies, civil and structural engineering, computer science and information systems, pharmacy and pharmacology.
It is also ranked the top entrepreneurial university in Australia (12th in the World), according to the GSEA's Top Entrepreneurial Universities List, and the top advertising university of the decade in Australia (5th in the World), according the YoungGuns International Awards.
In November 2011 RMIT was recognised by the Australian Skeptics with a Bent Spoon Award for their teaching of ‘Energy Medicine’, Chiropractic and Chinese Medicine, all of which lack scientific rigour. The prize was awarded during the national convention of the Australien Skeptics in Sydney.
