A researcher’s H-index is a measure of her scientific output and is defined as the highest N such that she has N papers that have at least N citations. Pete Shirley of the University of Utah has page that lists the meta-H index for some Computer Science Departments.
“The meta h index of a department is the number of professors with h index higher or equal to h.”
You can add your Department or research lab by sending him a datafile to feed to his program.
