Creative Writing in Malaysia: 11 Best universities Ranked

Below is a list of best universities in Malaysia ranked based on their research performance in Creative Writing. A graph of 4.47K citations received by 1.86K academic papers made by 11 universities in Malaysia was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.

We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.
