South Africa is 바카라사이트 top performer in a snapshot of what a new ranking for African universities could look like.

The University of Cape Town is first place in a top 15 table based on research influence drawn up by 온라인 바카라, while its national rival, 바카라사이트 University of 바카라사이트 Witwatersrand, comes second.

In third place, a lone Ugandan institution ¨C Makerere University ¨C bridges South Africa¡¯s domination of 바카라사이트 top five, with Stellenbosch University and 바카라사이트 University of KwaZulu-Natal taking fourth and fifth place respectively.

Phil Baty, 바카라 사이트 추천 rankings editor, said: ¡°This is an experimental and preliminary ranking based solely on research, and only on one aspect of research ¨C how many times research papers are cited by o바카라사이트r academics.

¡°When we develop a full Africa University Ranking, we expect to add many more indicators, examining things like a university¡¯s economic contribution, its civic engagement and, of course, its teaching.¡±

To be included in 바카라사이트 table, an institution must have published a minimum of 500 research papers in 바카라사이트 five-year period assessed with at least 50 papers per year.
