Prezedu
aims to familiarize readers with the educational background of the world’s
Heads of State. The Prezedu Ranking System classifies Heads of State based
on their Highest Degree Earned (HDE). The HDE reflects only degree
programs that have been completed, not degrees that have been attempted.
This study is limited to analysis of formal education obtained through public
or private schools. Special training, military instruction or honorary degrees
are not accounted for in this study. The scope of this research pertains only
to official Heads of State of sovereign and Member Countries of the United
Nations. Below is an analysis of the Educational Attainment of Asia as of
December 2013.
