The 9th edition of Research.com ranking of the best universities in the field
of Electronics and Electrical Engineering relies os data consolidated from
multiple data sources including OpenAlex and CrossRef. The bibliometric data for
estimating the citation-based metrics were acquired on 21-12-2022.
Position in the ranking is based on a sum of D-indexes (Discipline H-index) of all ranking
scholar’s affiliated with a given institution. D-index
includes exclusively papers and citation
data for an examined discipline.

The range of our Electronics and Electrical Engineering research
Research.com’s best universities ranking is a credible lineup of
leading researchers from the area of Electronics and Electrical Engineering ,
created using a detailed examination
of 166,880 researchers determined from
multiple bibliometric data sources. For the area of
Electronics and Electrical Engineering, over 10355 scholars were
examined.
What is D-index inclusion threshold for Electronics and Electrical Engineering
The D-index threshold for approving a researcher to be
examined is established at 30 if
most of their publications are in the area of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. The
approval factors for scientists to be
considered into the ranking of top scientists are based on the D-index,
proportion of the contributions made within the selected
field of study plus the awards and achievements of the
scholars. The D-index threshold for listing best
scholars is set as an increment of 10 depending on the total number of
researchers assessed for each
discipline whilst guaranteeing that the top 1% of
best scientists are added into the ranking.
We estimate a proximity of 30% or less between a
researcher’s general H-index and their D-index.
Additional verification rules
As our primary aim is to guarantee that only
actual researchers are mentioned in
Research.com ranking we realize that metrics are never
meant to be an absolute tool to evaluate the
contributions of scholars. Because of that
we manually inspect every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
varied range of reliable sources. While it’s not a
element contributing to a scholar’s position in
Research.com ranking, the number of documents published in
prominent journals and conference proceedings should constitute a
credible secondary signal of their contribution to research in a
selected area of science. Position in the ranking is
established using each scientist’s D-index
using metrics gathered from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most credible and well-known bibliometric
databases of this kind accessible to the scientific community. A
detailed definition of our research procedures
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our goal
Our aim is to motivate scholars,
companies and administrative bodies
worldwide to examine where leading experts are heading
and to provide an opportunity for the whole research community to
discover who the leading experts in specific
fields of research, in various countries, or even within research
institutions are.
