A scientometric-based evaluation system was recently applied at this university for its research groups, taking into account ~50 items presumed to afford quantification of scientific output, and defining two separate sets of formulae for exact sciences vs the rest of the disciplines. The protocol and the results of this evaluation are discussed, highlighting the relative contributions of the components to the overall score. }, URL = { http://rpss.inoe.ro/articles/150 }, eprint = { http://rpss.inoe.ro/articles/150/file }, journal = { Revista de Politica Științei și Scientometrie – Serie Nouă } }
