Education Ministry publishes 2024 list of top universities in Romania
Romania’s Ministry of Education released the latest edition of the National Metaranking, identifying the top universities in the country.

The Transilvania University of Brașov has entered the top 5 universities in Romania, alongside Babeș-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, the University of Bucharest, Politehnica University of Bucharest, and Carol Davila University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Bucharest. On the other hand, UMF Iuliu Hațieganu in Cluj-Napoca, dropped to 6th place.
The National Metaranking, which includes 32 universities, serves as the basis for the procedures through which the Ministry of Education and Research allocates research funding to universities, according to Edupedu.
The top three universities - Babeș-Bolyai University, the University of Bucharest, and Politehnica Bucharest - are the only ones with scores exceeding 20,000, according to the evaluation procedures of the metaranking’s authors.
