Others within the top five include Parsons The New School for Design (1), Royal College of Art (3), Escola de Disseny i Art (4) and Istituto Europeo di Design (5).[23][24]
El Mundo’s "Spain Best Universities Annual Report", placed CEU-UCH at 6 in 2006[25] 2008[26] and its Degree in Audiovisual Communication ranked fourth "Spain Best Universities to study Audiovisual Communication" in 2006,[25] 2010,[27] 2011, 2012[28] and 2013. El Mundo said: "The facilities, practical work in small groups and personalized attention are aspects of the race that contribute to achieving and maintaining fourth".[29]
CEU-UCH has been highly ranked by many international university rankings in 2013. The various international rankings that assess the quality of scientific research in universities place CEU-UCH at the top of the 23 Spanish private universities. In these studies, which apply, inter alia, scientific production criteria of the research production as well as the number of international publications and the number of citations of its authors, the CEU-UCH always ranks among the top four private universities in research. In both aspects, the growth of the CEU-UCH has been steady in recent years.
According to the Shanghai Jiao Tong University which applies to Spanish universities criterion which develops the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), the CEU-UCH is the second Spanish private university, after the University of Navarra, in terms of research excellence. This ranking takes into account criteria such as the number of articles in index-linked publications by the Science Citation Index-Expanded and Social Science Citation Index in the year prior to evaluation.[7][8]
According to IUNE Observatory ranking, which evaluates the research in Spanish universities, among the 23 private universities that exist in Spain, the CEU-UCH is placed fourth in terms of scientific publications taking into consideration the universities and professors. It is also fourth in terms of publications of first quartile, while it holds the third position regarding the citations that the professor is being received.[30][31][32]

In the case of SCImago Institutions Rankings, which measures the quality of international research, CEU-UCH ranks among only four Spanish private universities that appear in this ranking, as the rest do not reach the minimum indicators to be a part of this classification.[37][38] Another world ranking of universities, which evaluates institutional prestige, academic performance, the value of information and utility of services offered in its website, is Webometrics Ranking of World Universities by Webometrics. The CEU-UCH is placed in the first third of this ranking among all evaluated national and international universities, with significant improvement in their scores on all variables.[39]
