Abstract

The purpose of this study is to understand and analyze the quantitative data on the trend of academic publications produced by researchers across all disciplines, from science to humanities using bibliometric analysis affiliated with the Sultanate of Oman. During the study, a cross-country comparison was also conducted in order to determine and gage the contributions of various higher education institutions with a special focus on Oman. For the extraction of bibliometric data between January 1970 and November 2021, databases like Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus were taken into consideration. The results indicate the highest productivity years between 2012 and 2015, with elevated citation scores earned in the year 2012. Sultan Qaboos University in Oman emerged as the most notable contributor among higher education institutions in the Sultanate. Thus, this exhaustive bibliometric research depicts and abridges over 50 years of research work. This paper also outlines active higher education institutions in Oman involved in research and publication, the citations on their work, and productive years with respect to scholarly publications.
