Abstract: This study investigated scientific research on determine the strength of Basic Science focus research BASED on the 2014-2018 Scopus data. The Ministry of Research Technology and ( Kemenristekdikti ), especially the Directorate General of Research and Development (RISBANG), has a significant role in improving the quality of higher education. One way to improve higher education quality is through mapping the strengths of research. The advantage of the study that forms the basis of this mapping refers to RPJPN 2005-2025 and RPJMN 2015-2019, which focuses on Basic Science. This study used three steps methodology. First, secondary Scopus data year 2014-2018 from Kemenristekdikti in scientific publication focus on Basic Science were collected. Second, Scopus data based on sub-focus of Basic Science were identified. Last, we analyzed the data using frequency distribution, which consist of determining the range of data, the class number, and the class interval). This study concluded that 96.4 % (611) of 634 universities published journals indexed Scopus on range 1-136 journal publications within five years. UI (University of Indonesia) has the most journal publications of Basic Science focus.
