Top 200 Universities in the Arabic-speaking world

2023 World University Ranking New

Introduction

What are the most popular Universities in the Arabic-speaking world? uniRank answers this question by publishing the 2023 uniRank World University Ranking of the top 200 higher-education institutions in the Arabic-speaking world meeting the following uniRank selection criteria:

  • being chartered, licensed or accredited by the appropriate higher education-related organization in each country
  • offering at least three-year bachelor's degrees or postgraduate master's or doctoral degrees
  • delivering courses predominantly in a traditional, non-distance education format

uniRank aims to provide a non-academic League Table of the top Arabic-speaking Universities in the world based on valid, unbiased and non-influenceable web metrics provided by independent web intelligence sources rather than data submitted by the Universities themselves.
