Best Universities for Condensed Matter Physics in Africa

Updated:

EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in Africa ranked based on their research performance in Condensed Matter Physics. A graph of 694K citations received by 52.6K academic papers made by 123 universities in Africa 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.
