Computer Science – English Language

Accredited Program, duration of studies- 3 years / 180 credits

The Bachelor's Degree program in Computer Science has the main mission to develop high-level skills in the field of Computer Science, aiming to train the necessary specialists in the labor market. According to a recent study by the recruitment company Brainspotting, in Romania about 110,000 people are employed in the IT field and annually the number of graduates in this field is about 12,000 graduates. The Romanian universities provide a number of approx. 8500 computer scientists, which does not sufficiently cover the labor market needs. Thus, the proposal of some degree studies in the field of Informatics represents a consequence of the requests from the economic environment, respectively, an adaptation of the university environment to the demands on the labor market.

Applied Electronics

Accredited Program, duration of studies- 4 years / 240 credits

The specialization offers students a general training in the field of electronics, but also in-depth knowledge and practical skills in fields such as industrial electronics, medical electronics, and telecommunications. The training strategy of the graduates of the Applied Electronics specialization aims at the fast and efficient integration in the specific fields on the labor market. In this sense, the competencies acquired by graduates, the structure of the curriculum and the content of the syllabi were established in accordance with the requirements of employers, with the provisions of the National Qualifications Framework in higher education, taking into account the general specifics of labor market insertion and its regional specificity. At the same time, the skills of graduates are harmonized with the needs of mobility in the economic, regional, and European market. Through its structure, the curriculum of the specialization ensures the graduates to continue their studies through a master's degree program, but also the access to the master's programs of the related fields.

 

Environmental Engineering

Accredited Program, duration of studies- 4 years / 240 credits

The specialization prepares engineers in accordance with the principle of direct participation-involvement in choosing the training path, through a flexible learning process, ensuring real chances in competition on the free market workforce. In the field of professional training, the accumulation of applied knowledge is very well highlighted. All disciplines are designed to meet the training requirements of current European Union standards. The Environmental Engineering degree program has access, depending on the needs, to all the spaces of the University. In particular, this program has two modernized buildings (Buildings C and D), lecture and seminar rooms, offices, reading room, gym. In addition, students benefit from laboratories equipped with state-of-the-art equipment in which they acquire the practical skills necessary for integration into the labor market. Students passionate about certain study topics can carry out individual research activities in laboratories, can work in the Student Scientific Circle of Environmental Engineering and can present their work in the Student Scientific Sessions organized by the University.

 

Land and Cadastral Surveying

Accredited Program, duration of studies- 4 years / 240 credits

The development of education in the field of land measurements has been imposed both nationally and locally, due to economic and scientific needs, taking into account that the number of specialists in the field of land measurements is below the requirements of this field of activity. The structural changes that occurred in our country, after 1989, through the transition to a market economy and the development of private property, produced fundamental changes in the field of surveying, both in terms of real estate records and their graphic representations. The updating and modernization of the surveying, in order to make it multifunctional, requires a large number of specialists, with a distribution as uniform as possible at national level. Completing the necessary specialists in the field of Surveying is an absolute priority for the Romanian economy and society, given the need to introduce and maintain the General Cadastre throughout Romania and register all buildings in the Land Book.

 

Urban Engineering and Regional Development

Accredited Program, duration of studies- 4 years / 240 credits

The mission of the study program is to train construction engineers, ready to work both in public administration and in accredited design and execution companies in the field of civil engineering.
