Still the #1 Private Higher Education Institution in Mindanao
The University of Mindanao once again reaffirms its standing as a top-tier research institution, following the release of the latest AD Scientific Index (Alper-Doger Scientific Index). Out of 338 universities in the Philippines, UM ranked an impressive 65th nationwide, solidifying its position as the number one private university in Mindanao and the second overall university in Davao Region.
The AD Scientific Index is a globally recognized system that measures the research performance and productivity of individual scientists and institutions using key indicators such as the h-index, i10 index, and citation counts from Google Scholar. Covering over one million scholars from more than 13,600 institutions across 210 countries, the index offers a rigorous, data-driven benchmark of scientific impact and institutional excellence.
UM’s consistent placement in these prestigious rankings is a testament to its unwavering commitment to academic leadership, research excellence, and global competitiveness. This recognition reflects not only the dedication and productivity of its faculty researchers but also the university’s bold and strategic vision to be a driving force in advancing knowledge and innovation across disciplines.
As the leading private research university in Mindanao, UM continues to raise the bar for higher education, earning its place among the country’s most respected institutions.
