University ranking has become increasingly important in recent years
among the general public at large because it creates a public platform
for competition between universities and also serve as a marketing tool
to communicate their academic performance and build their international
reputation. Ranking help prospective students that are seeking admission
into tertiary institutions to choose a university of their choice with
programmes that aligned with their aspiration.
There are many ranking
systems used to rank universities at global level. Some of the
parameters employed by these global ranking bodies such as Per Capita
Performance, Academic Peer Review and Employer Review favour
universities in developed nations than universities in developing
nations, thereby giving unfavourable and poor ranking performance for
universities in developing nations. Hence, the need to have a
purpose-built web ranking systems that are easy to implement for
universities in developing nations.
The aim of this paper is to develop a
purpose-built web ranking system for tertiary institutions in
developing nations.
Nine existing ranking systems were considered in
this study and aggregated to form a unified system. Twenty-two criteria
were identified as a result of the aggregation but only seventeen
criteria are used and percentage weights were also assigned objectively
to each. Web crawling algorithm was employed to extract the value of
each criterion that is available on university website while other
criteria that are not available are manually input into the proposed
ranking systems. Some of the criteria used are number of full professors
in the university, number of publication, university popularity. System
implementation was carried out in PHP and Python.
The best five
universities from the proposed ranking system are University of Ibadan,
Obafemi Awolowo University, University of Lagos, University of Benin and
University of Ilorin.
The proposed ranking system will give a better and
reliable ranking result for universities in developing nations than
other existing ranking systems because it contained more robust
parameters. Hence, it is recommended as a tool for ranking of tertiary
institutions in developing nations.
