The body is behind the world ’ s most influential university ranking , and with almost five decades of experience as a source of analysis and insight on higher education . Its data and benchmarking tools are used by many of the world ’ s most prestigious universities to help them achieve their strategic goals .

The university was ranked within the 601 – 800 bracket thereby becoming the first Nigerian university to record such a milestone in a short time of existence.
