In a new ranking by the African University Ranking, the University of Lomé in Togo has managed to secure the 131st position among the top 200 universities on the African continent.
The University of Lomé has entered the top 200 list of the best universities in Africa, according to the latest report by the African University Ranking. This Togolese public institution has risen to the 131st place.
To achieve this ranking, the African University Ranking has implemented a rigorous methodology that evaluates African universities based on various criteria. These criteria include accreditation by appropriate bodies, ensuring the quality and compliance of educational programs. Furthermore, the ranking takes into account universities’ ability to deliver courses in the traditional in-person mode rather than distance learning, thereby valuing the on-campus learning experience.
UniRank, the organization behind this ranking, also considers the quality of teaching, research, infrastructure, and academic reputation of each institution. This comprehensive approach ensures that universities are evaluated exhaustively and balancedly, allowing the most high-performing institutions to stand out.
The success of the University of Lomé in this ranking highlights the continuous efforts made by higher education institutions in Africa to improve the quality of education and research. While dominated by countries like South Africa, Egypt, and Nigeria, this ranking reflects the increasing diversification of leading academic players in the region.
