\u00a0 \u00a0 Ahlan, Arabic lovers! In this post, I am going to share some good news from Africa. Earlier last month, the Times Higher Education<\/a> <\/em>World University Rankings for 2015\/2016<\/a> were revealed with a list of the best global universities. This is the only international university performance table to judge world class universities across all of their missions; teaching, research, knowledge transfer, and international outlook.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 Speaking of\u00a0Africa, South Africa has had the lion\u2019s share (with five universities represented) as it topped the ranking of the best universities in Africa thanks to its highly-cited research, its strong international outlook and its ability to attract large sums of money from industry. Egypt is the second most represented country in the table for Africa with three reputable institutions. Morocco comes third with two universities while Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria and Uganda each has one institution in the ranking.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 The Times Higher Education Africa Universities Summit<\/a> will discuss the topic of \u201cglobalization and policy directions for African Higher Education\u201d<\/em> and will also discuss whether both public and private institutions are essential to a strong university sector in the continent and consider what are the best ways to educate Africa\u2019s youth.<\/p>\n
