Saudi Arabia ranked first in the Arab world and 30th globally in the British “Nature” index for evaluating countries, universities and public and private institutions for quality of scientific research in 2022.
The kingdom’s ranking comes from the collected data approved by the magazine based on scientific publication in the best 82 international scientific journals, where the number of Saudi publications in these journals reached 448.
“Nature” included 26 Saudi universities in its tables for this year, compared to only 16 universities in 2018.
