WORLD UNIVERSITIES RANKINGS 2020: SEE HOW AFRICAN UNIVERSITIES FARED IN THE LATEST RANKINGS (PHOTOS)

The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2020 includes almost 1,400 universities across 92 countries, standing as the largest and most diverse university rankings ever to date.

The table is based on 13 carefully calibrated performance indicators that measure an institution’s performance across teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook.

The only university ranking to be independently audited by professional services firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, and trusted worldwide by students, teachers, governments and industry experts, this year’s league table provides great insight into the shifting balance of power in global higher education.

For the fourth year in a row, the University of Oxford leads the rankings in first place, while the University of Cambridge falls to third. The California Institute of Technology rises three places to second, while Stanford, Yale, Harvard and Imperial College London all appear in the top ten.

Mainland China now provides both of Asia’s top two universities, with Tsinghua and Peking universities finishing at 23rd and 24th place respectively. The country’s universities have continued to expand their influence and presence on the world stage.
The US is, once again, extremely well-represented among the global elite, while Canada’s top universities have risen up the table.

In Europe, Italy’s top institutions all make headway among the elite top 200 and German representation remains strong. However, the UK faces declines.
Elsewhere, Iran has 11 more ranked universities to take its representation up to 40 institutions, while Latin America struggles in a competitive global market – although Brazil adds several more institutions to the list.

Several new regions join the rankings this year as Brunei, Cuba, Malta, Montenegro, Puerto Rico and Vietnam all see institutions represented for the first time. Bangladesh also re-joins the table
In Africa, University of Cape Town remains strong on the table as Africa’s best ranked University while in Nigeria, Covenant University tops federal institutions like University of Ibadan, University of Lagos and University of Nigeria Nsukka.

Other African countries that made the list are: Ghana, Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt and Algeria.

it is a big lie, they will eat your card. once you send them the pin of your card to one of their website, the card is gone. they did it to me. thieves

u pay 500k for school fees at private unis and ABU zaria with less than 50k still get ranking pass u


I think people that attended private universities wasted a lot and missed a lot as well
some of my friends in private universities are always groaning on how they have restricted/limited movements, how they are not allowed to cook, how they are still being monitored like toddlers , how they cant even stay outside school compound beyond 6pm

them I ask my self what's the essence of higher institution when u cant experience real life

Take it easy brother, this has little to do with African leaders. I'm not supporting corrupt leaders but those universities you see there are older than many African countries. I mean, they've been existing for over hundred years, they're well established with a lot of funds that are bigger than revenue many African countries could generate at the moment.

I think we should celebrate the likes of Covenant University that's doing great rather complaining about African leaders. The owner of Covenant University is also a leader in Africa.

it is good one that Nigerian universities top many universities in the same sub region.

Where's Otueke university.

Some people dont want their children to be exposed so early and spoil. They prefer to see them through 18 and set them free.
