EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in Minnesota ranked based on their research performance in Computer Science. A graph of 5.72M citations received by 160K academic papers made by 27 universities in Minnesota 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.
