在亞洲國家中，韓國的排名下降幅度最大，達38%，其次是香港（29%）和中國大陸（21%）。
國立台灣大學（台大）在台灣大學表現突出，共有39個學科躋身全球前100強。
台大古典學與古代史學科排名躍升至第六，較去年的第19位大幅提升，成為台灣唯一進入全球前十名的學科。
QS世界大學排名涵蓋55個學科和五大學科領域：自然科學、工程與技術、人文藝術、社會科學與管理以及生命科學與醫學。
台大在五大學科領域均名列全球前100強，領跑台灣大學。
台大自然科學學科排名全球第60位，較去年上升3位；工程與技術學科排名第63位（上升19位），人文藝術學科排名第63位（上升7位）；社會科學與管理學科排名第67位（上升6位）；生命科學與醫學學科排名第83位（下降3位）。
國立高雄旅護大學的飯店及休閒管理專業排名從全球第45位躍升至第23位，創下細分學科排名中的最大躍升幅度。
QS高級副總裁Ben Sowter表示，儘管整體排名有所下滑，但台灣頂尖大學的表現依然強勁。
他將這一結果歸因於結構性壓力，包括人口下降影響台灣大學入學率。
Sowter指出，隨著台灣加大對人工智慧和先進技術的投資，台灣大學在科學、技術、工程和數學（STEM）領域的國際知名度可望大幅提升。
QS世界大學學科排名發布聲明稱，今年的排名涵蓋了來自100個國家1900所院校的21000多個學術項目。
排名網站顯示，排名採用五個指標：學術聲譽、雇主聲譽、論文人均引用次數、H指數（衡量總引用次數）以及國際研究網絡。

Taiwan falls by 20 percent in latest QS World University rankings by subject
Taiwan’s higher education system saw a net drop of 20 percent in the Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings by Subject released yesterday.
Taiwan contributed 299 entries from 30 universities, including 257 individual subjects and 42 broad faculty areas.
Of these, 58 subjects rose, 119 fell, and 88 remained unchanged, resulting in a 20 percent decline.

Among Asian countries, South Korea saw the steepest decline at 38 percent, followed by Hong Kong at 29 percent and China at 21 percent.
National Taiwan University (NTU) led Taiwan’s performance, with 39 subjects in the global top 100.
NTU rose to sixth in classics and ancient history, up from 19th last year, securing Taiwan’s only top-10 global placement.
QS ranks 55 academic disciplines and five broad faculty areas: natural sciences, engineering and technology, arts and humanities, social sciences and management, and life sciences and medicine.
NTU led Taiwan in the broad areas, ranking in the global top 100 in all five.
It was 60th globally in natural sciences — up three places from last year; 63rd in engineering and technology (up 19), and arts and humanities (up seven); 67th in social sciences and management (up six); and 83rd in life sciences and medicine (down three).
National Kaohsiung University of Hospitality and Tourism climbed from 45th to 23rd globally in hospitality and leisure management, the largest jump for a narrow subject.
QS senior vice president Ben Sowter said that Taiwan’s top-tier performances remained strong despite declining overall.
He attributed the results to structural pressures, including a demographic decline affecting university enrollment in Taiwan.
With the nation’s growing national investment in artificial intelligence and advanced technology, the international visibility of Taiwanese universities in science, technology, engineering and mathematics fields is expected to surge, Sowter said.
This year’s QS World University Rankings by Subject covered more than 21,000 academic offerings from 1,900 institutions across 100 countries, a statement released by the ranking service said.
The rankings use five indicators: academic reputation, employer reputation, research citations per paper, H-index — which measures total citations — and international research network, its Web site says.
