The Moldovan National H-index Ranking was updated in the second quarter of 2025. We offer you the current list of the top ten best universities in the country according to the h-index.

Top 10 best universities in Moldova
To analyse the scientific productivity and publication activity of universities in Moldova, a ranking methodology based on the Hirsch Index, known as Moldovan National H-index Ranking, is used. This national ranking is an important tool to assess the scientific achievements of universities in the country.
The peculiarity of the Hirsch Index is that it takes into account both the total number of publications and the level of their citation in the scientific community. This approach provides an opportunity to comprehensively measure the contribution of Moldovan educational institutions to the development of science both at the national and global level.
The ranking includes data on four key categories, among which are:
- National Hirsch Index.
- Hirsch Index in Scopus.
- Hirsch Index in Web of Science.
- Hirsch index in Google Scholar.
