Our faculty, together with the Faculty of Theology and Faculty of Law, stood for the turning point towards the foundation of the University of Iasi on October 1, 1860. Noteworthy personalities taught at the Faculty of Philosophy among which we would mention: Titu Maiorescu, Vasile Conta, Simion Bărnuţiu, Dimitrie Gusti, Ştefan Zeletin, Ion Petrovici, Mihail Ralea, Petre Andrei, Alexandru Claudian, Ştefan Bârsănescu, Vasile Pavelcu, Petre Botezatu, Ernest Stere, etc. In 1990, the Faculty of Philosophy established itself as a self-governed faculty within the “Al. I. Cuza” University of Iasi, to better answer the new higher education requirements. The Faculty of Philosophy have its magazines, academic journals, collective works, collections of academic papers related to conferences and other events published every year. Most of its teaching staff are members of the National Council for Titles and Degree Accreditation (CNATDU), National Council for Academic Accreditation and Assessment, Romanian Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ARACIS), National Council for Scientific Research and National Office for International Scholarships within the Romanian Ministry of Education. 7 The Faculty of Philosophy changed its name to the Faculty of Philosophy and Social-Political Sciences upon the nomination of the faculty governance and following the Government Decision No. 635 of 11-JUNE-2008. This was also made to better meet the requirements towards recognition of the academic specialisations while making them more visually represented in the faculty name itself. Our faculty concluded bilateral agreement with more than 70 European higher education institutions from Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Great Britain, Holland, Portugal, and Spain. These agreements regard student mobility, academic mobility, joint teaching and research projects. 8 GENERAL INFORMATION ON OUR FACULTY “Al. I.
