United Kingdom-based Times Higher Education magazine, which publishes an annual ranking of global universities, placed the Hebrew University of Jerusalem among the top 100 most powerful global university brands for 2018.
It was the first time since 2014 that an Israeli university ranked in the top 100.
The World Reputation Rankings 2018 surveyed over 10,000 leading academics from 137 countries, a statement from the university said.
Hebrew University placed in the 91-100 range, along with Boston University, University of Copenhagen, France's École Polytechnique, the University of Helsinki and the India Institute of Science, among others.
"To be judged among the Top 100 most powerful university brands is a great source of pride for everyone at Hebrew University and for Israel as a whole," Hebrew University President Asher Cohen said in the statement.
Harvard University took the top spot for the eighth consecutive year, and 43 other U.S. institutions rated in the top 100. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Stanford University were ranked second and third respectively.
