100 Best universities for Computer Engineering in Japan

Updated:

EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in Japan ranked based on their research performance in Computer Engineering. A graph of 263K citations received by 34.5K academic papers made by 108 universities in Japan 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.
