How much does the ranking/standing of a university matter at PhD level? I've spotted a project that I'm really interested in but it's at a low-ranked uni that's not really known for my (STEM) subject. They seem to have recruited lecturers in this area only in the last year or so (and the subject is not taught at undergrad level as a degree, only as a part of other courses). I'm also applying for projects at more established universities but the actual projects excite me less. I'm just worried that a PhD from a less well-known uni would reduce my chances of getting a postdoc position afterwards.
