University Prepares for Future Webometrics Rankings

In the latest Webometrics ranking (January 2021 edition), the University ranked number 1,887 worldwide (out of over 30,000 higher education institutions), number 37 in Africa, and number 2 in Kenya. Despite this impressive performance, there is plenty of room for improvement. Our primary target is to ensure that Egerton University ranks among the top 1,500 universities worldwide. To achieve this, DMRM has undertaken such key activities as the training of academic staff on creating an interactive staff profile on the University website.

Investing in Higher Education for Development:

Through its support to 24 academic research centers of excellence in eight countries, the Eastern & Southern Africa Higher Education Centers of Excellence (ACEII) project succeeded in enrolling over 8,000 students, of whom one-third were female, in Master’s and PhD programs, as well as in short courses. To support capacity in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), the project focuses on five regional priority areas: agriculture, applied statistics, education, health and industry.
