For the third consecutive year, Lagos State University has maintained its enviable status as the best state university in Nigeria in the AD Scientific Index Ranking.
In the 2024 universities ranking released recently, LASU, which also recently emerged the second most sought after university by admission seekers, was rated the best among state universities, the 10th best among 174 public universities and the 12th best overall among 237 ranked universities in Nigeria.
The latest ranking reinforces the institution’s place as one of the top research hubs in the country, a credence to the efforts of the university administration’s drive to promote research culture in the university.
In a related development, five professors from the College of Medicine of the University (LASUCOM) have made it to the list of the latest Stanford Ranking of the Top 2% Scientists in Nigeria.
The scientists include Prof. Adejuwon A. ADENEYE (Department of Pharmacology, Therapeutics & Toxicology, who was ranked number 157), Prof. Idowu O. SENBANJO (Department of Pediatrics & Child Health, who was ranked number 213), Prof. Anthonia O. OGBERA (Department of Medicine, who was ranked number 219) Prof. Olumuyiwa O. ODUSANYA (Department of Community Health & Primary Health Care, who was ranked number 220) and Prof. Olayinka O. OGUNLEYE (Department of Pharmacology, Therapeutics & Toxicology, who was ranked number 229 on the list.
The Stanford University publication, the world’s most prestigious ranking, is published annually to recognise the most cited scientists for the year.
The Vice Chancellor, Prof. Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, mni, NPOM congratulates the professors for being so recognised and for bringing honour to the university as a whole and the Lagos State University College of Medicine in particular.
She hopes that the feat will further spur more academic staff in the university to pursue their primary responsibility of teaching and research and take it a step further by publishing their research outputs in recognised platforms for visibility.
