60 Best universities for Theoretical Physics in England

Updated:

EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in England ranked based on their research performance in Theoretical Physics. A graph of 3.55M citations received by 80.7K academic papers made by 60 universities in England 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.
