On the times uni ranking list, sussex research score have around 92.7 where RH only have 72.97. But RH has a better teacher score than Sussex.

Both are well respected universities.

Royal Holloway ranks higher for Computer Science as well: https://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/league-tables/rankings/computer-science

Why not contact BCS and ask them about their opinion on research?

Also, which is publishing the most papers? Which research is being picked up by others?

Visit them again, open days etc.

You can search online for academic papers and you can cross reference faculty names from the university websites. Time consuming I know, unless someone can advise you.

Sussex.

As an international student it will be a fabulous place to study and you will have a great time.
Sussex has an excellent reputation for Computer Science - Royal Holloway is better known for Humanities and Business subjects.
