Professor Nick Vaughan-Williams, Head of PAIS, commented:

"PAIS is an international community of lively, questioning, and curious minds studying some of the most pressing issues in global politics today. Our position in The Guardian builds on recent success in other national league tables – notably 3^rd place in The Times/Sunday Times and 4^th place in the Complete University Guide. In short, we are now unequivocally in the Top 5 of all UK rankings.”
