About QS Stars
QS Stars looks at a university as a whole, across areas such as teaching, employability, research, global engagement, facilities, innovation, social impact and governance, and gives students and partners a detailed picture of its strengths. HMU’s rating was awarded in 2026 following an evaluation that QS carries out every four years.
