100 Best colleges for Computational Chemistry in the United States

Updated:

EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in the United States ranked based on their research performance in Computational Chemistry. A graph of 10.9M citations received by 252K academic papers made by 330 universities in the United States 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.
