History


The Order of Scientific Merit was conferred upon Romanian citizens in recognition of merit, including scientific discoveries and advancements in method and research, in a variety of scientific fields. It was permanently suppressed following the collapse of the Socialist Republic in 1989.

I Class award recipients were granted 1600 lei (400 USD) and 4 additional days of paid leave.

See also the Medal of Scientific Merit in the Medals & Decorations of Romanian People's Republic & Romanian Socialist Republic (1947-1989) for the medal that was created alongside this order.
