The 9th edition of Research.com ranking of the best universities in the discipline
of Electronics and Electrical Engineering is based on data combined from
various data sources including OpenAlex and CrossRef. The bibliometric data for
evaluating 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
takes into account only papers and citation
data for an examined discipline.

The scope of our Electronics and Electrical Engineering research
Research.com’s best universities ranking is a trustworthy list of
leading scientists from the field of Electronics and Electrical Engineering ,
based on a meticulous examination
of 166,880 scientists identified from
a variety of bibliometric data sources. For the area of
Electronics and Electrical Engineering, as many as 10355 scientists were
investigated.
What is D-index approval threshold for Electronics and Electrical Engineering
The D-index threshold for accepting a scholar to be
considered is established at 30 if
most of their publications are in the field of Electronics and Electrical Engineering. The
inclusion criteria for scientists to be
considered into the ranking of top scientists are based on the D-index,
ratio of the contributions made within the selected
area in addition to the awards and achievements of the
scientists. The D-index threshold for including top
researchers is set as an increment of 10 depending on the overall number of
scholars assessed for each
scientific field whilst ensuring that the top 1% of
best researchers are considered into the list.
We expect a proximity of 30% or less between a
scientist’s general H-index and their D-index.
Extra verification practices
Because our main aim is to guarantee that only
genuine scientists are included in
Research.com ranking we believe that metrics are never
meant to be a complete tool to assess the
output of scientists. Because of that
we manually inspect every profile and cross-correlate it against publications in a
varied range of trustworthy sources. While it’s not a
element contributing to a scholar’s position in
the ranking, the number of documents published in
well-known journals and conference proceedings should be a
valuable secondary signal of their contribution to research in a
given area of science. Position in the ranking is
determined by each scholar’s D-index
using metrics gathered from OpenAlex and
CrossRef, which are the most prominent and well-established bibliometric
databases of this kind accessible to the scientific community. A
detailed overview of our research process
can be found on our
methodology page.
Our goal
Our aim is to inspire researchers,
companies and politicians
around the world to investigate where leading experts are heading
and to give an opportunity for the whole scientific community to
get to know who the leading experts in specific
disciplines, in various countries, or even within research
institutions are.
