Additionally, in June 2023, SCImago (SCImago Institutions Rankings) also published a ranking of research institutions and universities worldwide for the year 2023.

Over the course of 14 years of establishment and development, the scientific and educational reputation of the university has been solidified with high positions on both domestic and global rankings, affirming that the university's various activities are increasingly comprehensive, progressive, and sustainably developing.

The Webometrics Ranking of World Universities (abbreviated as Webometrics) is a system for evaluating and ranking higher education institutions worldwide. The ranking table is published by the Cybermetrics Lab, a research group of the Spanish National Research Council (in Spanish called: Consejo Superior de Investigaciones

Científicas, CSIC) based in Madrid. This system is also known by another name “the Ranking Web of Universities”. The ranking was first published in January 2004, and the publication cycle of the Webometrics ranking is twice a year. In Vietnam, new universities were included in this evaluation and ranking system by Webometrics starting from January 2016. As of July 2023, in Asia, 46 countries (including Vietnam) are evaluated by Webometrics. In Vietnam, there are 186 higher education institutions listed in the ranking.
