TRANSPARENT RANKING: TOP UNIVERSITIES BY GOOGLE SCHOLAR CITATIONS
Second Edition (July 2016 version 1.1) Nigeria List

Google Scholar Citations introduced very recently the institutional profiles
for providing rankings of scientists who shared the same standardized
name and email address of an institution. The total number of individual
profiles is probably close to one million, while the number of
universities profiles is over 5000, so it is possible to build a global
ranking that, although still incomplete, can be representative at least
for the best universities.

This ranking is an experiment for
testing the suitability of including GSC data in the Rankings Web, but
it is still in beta. The current methodology is simple:

1. Only institutional profiles are
chosen. If your university or your faculty members are not included,
please promote they set up (voluntarily) their own Google Scholar
Citations public profiles with a normalized (official) name of the university in the affiliation and using the INSTITUTIONAL email address.

2. Data from the top 10 public profiles
of each university are collected. This number of profiles is for
allowing size independent comparisons.

3. The first profilte of the list is
excluded for improving representativeness. For the rest of the top 10
(maximum 9 profiles) the number of citations are added and the
institutions are ranked in descending order of this indicator. If there
are several entries for the same author, only the best profile is used
penalizing organizations that are not cleaning duplicates from the list.
Non individual profiles (journals, departments, groups) are excluded,
that means the number of entries computed are reduced.

4. The figures are valid only at the time of collection. We don`t comment on the numbers or absences. Please, contact directly with Google Scholar for any aspect related with its database or profiles.

IMPORTANT INFO

To set up an personal
profile in Google Scholar Citations database is voluntary, but once made
it public the responsibility for info correctness belongs to the
author. GSC automatically updates the profiles that is very practical
but that sometimes adds non-pertinent records and citations to the
profile. Authors should be aware of these issues and clean their
profiles periodically. Also institutions should monitor their members
profiles for intended (or unintended) fake, incorrect or duplicate
records. This is key for the ranking as any institution with at least
one of these problems can be excluded from future editions of the
ranking.
