UDSM among top institutions in Africa












UNIVERSITY of Dar es Salaam has once
again featured among the highest ranked universities on the African
Continent, according to results released by the University Ranking by
Academic Performance (URAP) research laboratory.

Tanzania also has Sokoine University of
Agriculture (SUA) and Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences
(MUHAS) featured on the list. University of Dar es Salaam comes 36th in
Africa and 1,593rd in the world; SUA is at slot 45 in Africa and
1,771st in the world and MUHAS ranks 42nd in Africa and 1716th in the
world.

University Ranking by Academic
Performance was established at the Informatics Institute of the Middle
East Technical University, in 2009, to develop a ranking system of world
universities by academic performance, which is more comprehensive in
coverage.

By covering 2,500 Higher Education
Institutions (HEIs) in the world, the URAP ranking avails more
universities the opportunity to observe academic progress at both global
and national levels.

It considers the six academic
performance indicators including the Number of articles (Current
Scientific Productivity), Citation (Research Impact), Cumulative Journal
Impact (Scientific Impact), and H-Index (Research Quality). Others are
International Collaboration (International Acceptance), and Google
Scholar Results (Long-Term Overall Productivity).

A total score of 600 is distributed to
each indicator as follows: Number of Articles -- 24 per cent; Google
Scholar Counts -- 10 per cent; Citation - 21 per cent; Cumulative
Journal Impact - 18 per cent; H-Index -- 12 per cent; and Collaboration
-- 1 per cent.

The University of Cape Town ranked top in Africa and Harvard University ranked number one in the world.

The data used in the ranking is gathered
from Web of Science -- an online tool for retrieving accurate citation
counts, Google Scholar, open-access sources and credible sources which
provide lists of HEIs, such as the ISI (Information Sciences Institute).

Information
Sciences Institute is a world leader in research and development of
advanced information processing, computer and communications
technologies.

The ranking comes a year after the
transition of UDSM from a faculty-based to a collegiate and schools.
More so, UDSM has always ranked high by Webometrics, in institutions of
higher learning in Africa. Webometrics is an organisation that monitors
university performance worldwide.
