This article analyses research productivity and international collaboration of top Indonesian universities. The data were collected from Scopus with regard to number of documents, authors, affiliation and country partners in research. The top ten Indonesian universities were then chosen for analysis. The results suggest that top universities in Indonesia published articles in peerreviewed journals earlier too, but showed slow progress before 2000. After 2010 the number of documents increased significantly, especially among the three largest Indonesian universities, i.e. Bandung Institute of Technology, University of Indonesia and Gadjah Mada University. These universities also showed higher productivity of their authors. The top Indonesian universities collaborated with universities in developed countries such as Japan, the United States, The Netherlands, Australia and Germany. There was collaboration with neighbouring countries in Southeast Asia, mainly with Malaysia, Thailand and Singapore. Based on these findings, this article suggests some insights to improve the quantity and quality of publications from Indonesian universities. © 2018 Current Science Association, Bengaluru.
