Our goal is to elevate ISUFST’s standing in international rankings, and with our collective efforts, we will achieve this milestone,” Dr. Belga said. Dr. Pasag highlighted the broader significance of global rankings, noting that they challenge institutions to innovate and raise standards continuously. He encouraged the ISUFST community to “eat, breathe, and live the UN SDGs and internationalization,” stressing that this commitment will shape the university’s future path.
