2024 African University Ranking New

Introduction

What are the most popular Universities in Africa? ¿Û¿Û´«Ã½ answers this question by publishing the 2024 African University Ranking of the top 200 recognized higher-education institutions in Africa meeting the following ¿Û¿Û´«Ã½ selection criteria:

  • being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate higher education-related organization in each country
  • offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees
  • delivering courses predominantly in a traditional, non-distance education format

¿Û¿Û´«Ã½ aims to provide a non-academic League Table of the top Universities in Africa based on valid, unbiased and non-influenceable web metrics provided by independent web intelligence sources rather than data submitted by the Universities themselves.
