The university's research presence spans a wide range of disciplines, with the list including researchers from medicine, pharmacy, nursing, engineering, science, information technology, business administration, dentistry, agriculture, and rehabilitation sciences, alongside specialized research centers and units.
The results also showed the presence of a number of researchers in both categories—the long career and the single year—affirming the continuity of their scientific impact and their ability to maintain a prominent research presence and achieve high-impact scientific output with high citations. Among them are researchers from multiple disciplines in medical, engineering, natural sciences, information technology, and others.
This list is considered one of the global tools for evaluating the scientific impact of researchers, as it relies on a set of indicators, including the number of citations, the h-index, and the composite c-score, which measures scientific impact regardless of the number of publications while taking into account the researcher's various authorship roles, such as first or last author.
This achievement embodies a qualitative addition to the journey of the University of Jordan as an incubator for distinguished research, and reaffirms its commitment to enhancing its global scientific presence by enriching society with knowledge, innovation, and rigorous research contributions that advance science and serve development locally and internationally.
In this context, the President of the University of Jordan, Dr. Nathir Obeidat, expressed his pride in this achievement, emphasizing that it is the fruit of the continuous attention the university pays to scientific research and researchers, encouraging distinguished scientific production, supporting excellence and innovation, and enhancing the presence of the university and its researchers in global databases, indicators, and rankings.
He added that the University of Jordan is proud of this achievement, which embodies the efforts of its researchers and their scientific excellence, congratulating all the male and female researchers included in the list, wishing them further success and distinction, and the continuation of their scientific contributions that enhance the standing of the University of Jordan and its research presence at both the regional and international levels.
This presence confirms that the University of Jordan does not stop at producing knowledge, but continues to work on enhancing its impact and global reach, in line with its vision of solidifying its position as a leading research university.
For his part, the Dean of Scientific Research, Dr. Ayman Wahbeh, explained that scientific research holds a high status at the university, and that this advanced presence of researchers in the top 2% global list reflects the level of excellence achieved by the university's researchers, the support provided by the university for scientific research, and the encouragement of researchers to produce rigorous, qualitative research with a broad scientific impact, thereby enhancing the university's presence in global research databases and rankings.
