Key Statistics & Breakdown Performances Of Top 3 Universities In Nigeria – THE 2019

Methodology
The performance indicators are grouped into five areas: teaching(the learning environment); research(volume, income and reputation); citations (research influence); international outlook (staff, students and research); and industry income(knowledge transfer).

Here I will be showing the breakdown performances and key statistics (which include No of students,No of students per staff,No of international students) of the top 3 universities in Nigeria. Also on this thread will be the criteria made by THE for other universities who wish to be on the inclusion list

Institutions must meet seven criteria in order to be included in the Overall Ranking

I.Sufficient publications – An institution is required to publish more than 1000 papers over the previous 5 years, and more than 150 publications in any single year. Thresholds are also applied per subject for the subject rankings.

ii. Undergraduate students – An institution must teach at an undergraduate level, usually indicated by having more than zero undergraduate degrees awarded to be marked as valid. Postgraduate-only institutions are therefore not in the ranking.

iii. Subject breadth – An institution must not be focused on a single narrow subject area (more than 80% of their publication output is from one subject area).

iv.Sufficient data in overall submission – If an institution has not supplied any “overall” numbers for the ranking year they are excluded from the ranking.

v. Sufficient overall values – If more than two of the critical overall values (academic staff, international academic staff, research staff, students, international students, undergraduate degrees awarded, doctorates awarded, institutional income, research income, research income from industry and commerce) are null (either marked by the institution as “unavailable” or “withheld”), the institution is marked as invalid. Null values will cause any metric based on that value to also be null.

vi. At least one subject submission – In addition to overall numbers, an institution must supply numbers for at least one applicable subject. If no applicable subjects have been reported, the institution is marked as invalid.

vii. Not featured in custom exclusions list – Institutions that have requested not to participate in the ranking or that are not eligible for other institution-specific reasons have been excluded. 2b) Subject ranking criteria
