CoHASS faculty listed in Stanford Elsevier World’s Top 2% Scientists List (2024)

We are thrilled to announce that our faculty members from the College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences (CoHASS) at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) have been recognized in the prestigious Stanford Elsevier World’s Top 2% Scientists List for 2024. This remarkable achievement highlights their exceptional contributions and influence across a wide range of scientific fields.

The Stanford Elsevier World’s Top 2% Scientists List is a globally recognized ranking that identifies researchers who have made significant impacts in their disciplines. Compiled using Scopus data provided by Elsevier through ICSR Lab, the list uses a rigorous methodology that incorporates citation metrics such as the h-index, co-authorship, and adjusted citation counts. Updated annually, it reflects both career-long achievements (13 faculty members) and recent single-year contributions (18 faculty members).

Congratulations to all CoHASS faculty members who have earned this distinguished honour!

This recognition underscores the outstanding quality of research at CoHASS and reaffirms our commitment to fostering academic excellence and impactful scholarship. We are incredibly proud of our faculty members and their contributions to the global research community.
