EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in Scotland ranked based on their research performance in Materials Science. A graph of 3.4M citations received by 122K academic papers made by 17 universities in Scotland 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.
