The Regional Universities Forum for Capacity Building in Agriculture (RUFORUM), commends universities in Africa and through its various initiatives such as trainings, research grants, Innovation and academic mobility, will continue to support its member universities to deliver quality education and enable them rank higher globally.
In the previous Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2022, more than 1,600 universities were assessed worldwide across 13 performance indicators in five areas: teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook. According to this Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings 2022, fourteen (14) RUFORUM member Universities have been ranked among the top 83 Universities in Africa.
This year, the Times Higher Education Young University Rankings list the world’s best universities that are 50 years old or younger. The table is based on the same 13 performance indicators as the flagship THE World University Rankings.
The 2022 Young University Rankings includes 539 universities, up from 475 in 2021. A further 251 institutions are listed with “reporter” status, meaning that they provided data but did not meet our eligibility criteria to receive a rank. Of the 539 Universities across the globe, a total of 65 Universities are from Africa, and three (3) are members of the RUFORUM Network.
Below is the complete list of the top 65 universities ranked in Africa according to Times Higher Education Young University Rankings 2022 and the ones highlighted in green are the RUFORUM Member Universities.
