The best universities in Romania are the Babeș-Bolyai University (UBB) from Cluj-Napoca, the University of Bucharest (UB) and the National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest (UNSTPB), according to the meta-ranking report for the year 2023, published Wednesday afternoon, May 8, by the Ministry of Education.
The ranking includes only 30 universities (28 state, two private) out of the 89 that exist in Romania (52 state, 37 private), according to the cited report.
“The top 10 universities in Romania in 2023 are similar to the one in 2022, being occupied by comprehensive, technical and medical universities”, claims the Ministry of Education.
Compared to the previous metaranking of to the Ministry of Education about which Edupedu.ro wrote on May 15, 2023the “Carol Davila” University of Medicine and Pharmacy is now in 4th place, up from 5th place, reversing the position with the “Iuliu Hațieganu” University of Medicine and Pharmacy from Cluj-Napoca.
According to the most recent ranking, the Bucharest Academy of Economic Studies (ASE) moved to the 9th place in the top 30 universities in Romania from the year 2023, compared to the 10th place registered for the year 2022, surpassing the “Gheorghe Asachi” Technical University from Iași.
The Military Technical University “Ferdinand I” from Bucharest, last year ranked 31st in the national metaranking, was left out of the ranking because it was not found in the international metarankings used as a benchmark by the Ministry of Education, the institution notes in the report, which can be downloaded below from the article.
- It should be noted that the meta-ranking, used for the annual allocation of funds for research in universities, should have been ready since last month, but has been delayed, and the methodology for funding research in higher education institutions was published before this ranking.
The 2023 National Metaranking published by the Ministry of Education:
“Romanian universities were present in only six of the eight rankings used in the previous edition of the metaranking, which underlines the need for careful monitoring of the indicators used in the ARWU and NTU rankings, as well as the causes that led to the downgrading of Romanian universities from these rankings”, notes the Ministry of Education in the report – document below.
The Ministry’s ranking is made separately from those made independently, until three years ago, under the auspices of the Ad Astra Association of Romanian Researchers, and from 2022 – by the Quality Center of UBB.
