UI, OAU, UNILAG missing
as UNIPORT makes
Africa’s top 30 university
The University of Ibadan, Obafemi Awolowo
University and the University of Lagos are
missing from the list of the 30 best universities
in Africa for 2015 in a rating released by the
World Economic Forum (WEF).
The University of Port Harcourt was named as
the sixth best university in Africa, trailing four
South African and one Ugandan university.
The list, which was dominated by South Africa
and Egypt, saw the southern Africa country
amass 12 positions on the ranking, with the north
African country trailing with half a dozen
schools.
Morocco had three universities. Tunisia came up
with another three, while Kenya, Ghana,
Cameroon, Uganda, Ethiopia and Nigeria had a
single university in the 2015 ranking.
"These results are essentially
based on the amount of citations there are for
the university’s work”.
Quoting Times Higher Education (THE), WEF said
the universities are “derived from the
methodology for the current world university
ranking, using the 13 factors (below), combining
THE’s own enormous database of statistics along
with the Elsevier’s Scopus database – a system
that highlights some of the continent’s top
performers in terms of how often research
papers are referred to and cited by other
academics globally”.
“This methodology is designed for the research-
led globally facing university. Times Higher
Education emphasised that not everyone in
Africa will find the metrics appropriate to their
mission or their strategic priorities making this
ranking a starting point of a longer, inclusive
conversation involving African institutions.”

wow! Uniport has really made 9ja proud! I don't knw why people are so Jealous of uniport.UNIPORT being ranked best by WEF doesn't imply that uniport is the best in all respect.Each of these bodies have different criteria for their ranking.we ought to be hppy that the skul made 9ja proud instead of making disparaging or derogatory remarks. |
