The University of Cumbria is not ranked among the top global universities in major international rankings like the QS World University Rankings or the Times Higher Education World University Rankings. It is a relatively young institution, established in 2007, and focuses on teaching excellence, vocational training, and regional impact rather than research output, which influences global rankings.
However, it performs well in specific areas like education, health, and arts. Prospective students should consider its strengths in employability, student support, and specialized programs rather than global ranking alone.
