“International ranking” is a topic much debated among Sri Lankan academics today, as universities in Sri Lanka strive towards climbing the ranking ladder. The MOHE has promised to allocate funding towards achieving this goal and university administrators wonder how best to utilize the funding in achieving it. On 28 January 2011, a historic meeting was held at the University of Colombo, Faculty of Graduate Studies auditorium, to discuss how best to utilize these funds. Academics and administrative officers attached to the University of Colombo participated in this important meeting to discuss the goals, objectives, strategies and activities in the proposal developed by the University of Colombo.
