Universitat Ramon Llull (URL), of which La Salle Campus Barcelona is a founding member, consolidates its position as the top university in Catalonia according to the international employers surveyed in the GEURS 2027 ranking, the only international university ranking based exclusively on employer's perceptions. In this edition, URL ranks 3rd in Spain, 41st in Europe and 111th worldwide.
These results consolidate an upward trajectory: over the past three years, URL has climbed more than 50 places in the ranking. A sustained rise that reflects the link between the education the university offers and the skills the labour market values.
An education that employers recognise
GEURS, produced by the French consultancy Emerging and published with Times Higher Education, has established itself as one of the leading employability rankings, listing the 300 universities and schools that, according to those who hire their graduates, best prepare students for the job market. This year’s edition gathers the opinions of 15,665 employers from 40 countries who hire and supervise young graduates, and collects 170,457 votes for universities around the world.
This employer perspective highlights a practice-based education that connects knowledge with experience and prepares future professionals to face the challenges of the working world.
For La Salle – URL students, this result confirms that their education has value beyond the classroom: employers recognise the talent of the future professionals trained at URL and a programme that combines knowledge, hands-on experience and connection with business to make the leap into the labour market with confidence.
