INTRODUCTION A. THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSITY A.1. Legal Framework The “Saint Apollonia” Foundation, established at the beginning of 1990 aimed at creating a private university, an alternative to the public education. Therefore in February 1990 The Apollonia University of Iasi was born, The “Saint Apollonia” Foundation continued to closely monitor the development of the university, so that it doesn’t divert from the teaching and research activity thought by its founders. Created on the basis of the law that allows foundations to create higher education institutions, The “Apollonia” University of Iasi was officially set up according to the Law 48/July 11, 2002 which states that it represents “a legal entity of private law and public utility, part of the national education system, based in Iasi, Pacurari Street, No. 11” (Annex 1.1). Art. 2 of Law 481/11 July 2002 states that the “Apollonia” University of Iasi is set up with the following accredited faculty and field of study: Faculty of Dental Medicine, Dentistry field of study. (Annex 1.1) This legal recognition is the result of following these steps, in accordance with Law 88/1993 on accreditation of higher education institutions and the recognition of diplomas: a) The G.D. No.294/1997 granted (as proposed by the National Council for Academic Assessment and Accreditation) for the Faculty of Medicine (Medicine profile, field of study dentistry, day courses, 6 years) temporary operating permit (after the implementation of the Bologna process the name of the “Dentistry” field of study was changed to the more European name “Dental Medicine”). (Annex 1.2) b) The decision on the structures and the fields of study accredited by the university or provisional authorization (G.D. No. 410/2002), published in Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, no. 313 of May 13, 2002) authorized the Faculty of Communication Sciences with its fields of study, Communication and Public Relations, day courses, four years and Journalism, day courses, four years, and the Faculty of Dentistry, the Dentistry field of study, day courses, six years, Dental Technology, day courses, 3 years. Meanwhile, the university moved its activities into a new building, owned by the university. (Annex 1.3) Page 3 of 144 “APOLLONIA” UNIVERSITY OF IAȘI c) Law no. 481 of 11 July 2002 (Official Gazette, Part I, no. 518 of 17 July 2002) established and accredited "Apollonia" University of Iasi with the Faculty of Dental Medicine, the Dentistry field of study (CNEAA proposal, including institutional accreditation). (Anexa1.1) d) In May 2003 on the basis of decisions of the “Apollonia” University’s Senate (founded according to the Law No.481/July 11, 2002) and of the “Petre Andrei” University’s Senate (founded according to the Law 408/ June 20, 2002) the merger between the two institutions was decided, under the name “Petre Andrei” University of Iasi. e) The failure to complete the merger of the two universities resulted in the return of the two faculties, the Faculty of Dentistry, Dental field of study, accredited and the Faculty of Communication Sciences with the Journalism and Communication and Public Relations fields of study, at the “Apollonia” University of Iasi, as it was presented in the G.D. No. 1093 of September, 30 2009, published in Official Gazette of Romania, Part I, no. 684 of 12 October 2009. (Annex 1.4) f) The University continued to develop according to the vision and the initial goals of creating a modern and advanced education due to investment in the human resource and the material base, proposing new study field for the temporary authorization, according to the demands of the labor market. G.D. No. 966 of 29 September 2011 restates the structure of the Faculty of Dental Medicine, adding two new fields of study: Dentistry - day courses- six years, Dental Technology - 3 years, General Nursing - 4 years and Balneophysiokinetotherapy and Recovery, - three years, and the Faculty of Communication Sciences with the fields of study: Communication and Public Relations day courses, 3 years and Journalism, day courses, three years. (Annex 1.7) g) In 2012 and 2013 the university continued to appear in the Government Decisions [G.D. No. 707 of July 18, 2012] (Annex 1.11) and G.D. No. 493 of July 22, 2013 (Annex 1.12) in the following structure: Faculty of Dental Medicine with the study programs: Dentistry, day courses, six years (60 students), Dental Technology, day courses 3 years (25 students), General Nursing, 4 years (40 students) and Balneophisiokinetotherapy and Recovery, full time, three years (40 students), and the Faculty of the Communication Sciences with the study programs: Communication and Public Relations day courses, 3 years (25 students) and Journalism, day courses, three years (25 students). Page 4 of 144 “APOLLONIA” UNIVERSITY OF IAȘI h) In 2013 the monitoring period was prolonged by issuing Order No. 5533 of 19.11.2013 regarding the approval of the special monitoring methodology of the "Apollonia" University of Iasi which provides the methodology for organizing academic activities (entrance examination graduation examination, etc.) for the accredited or temporary authorized study programs. i) Starting with 2014 there is an unaccountable decrease in the tuition figure according to the G.D. 580/2014 (Annex 1.13) which stipulates the constitution of the Faculties and the maximum number of students who can be schooled in the 2014-2015 academic year: Faculty of Dental Medicine with the study programs: Dentistry (30 students), Dental Technology (15 students), General Nursing (20 students) and Balneophisiokinetotherapy and Recovery (20 students).

  • Smart University: a Premise for Regional Development. Evidence from South-East Region of Romania
    EAI Endorsed Transactions on e-Learning Research Article Smart University: A Premise for Regional Development. Evidence from South-East Region of Romania G. Marchis1,* 1Danubius University of Galati, Blvd. Galati no.3, 800654, Romania Abstract INTRODUCTION: A Smart University is a creative environment with a high level of adaptive capacity building to current societies’ challenges. From regional development planning perspective, a Smart University proves an anticipatory rather than reactionary adaptation to the context conditions, providing more development alternatives into the future, assuring in this way the regional performance and competitiveness. OBJECTIVES: The paper tackles 3 important perspectives of the role of HEIs from South-East region of Romania to regional development: The University as an Education and Training Platform, The University as a Research Platform and The University as a Knowledge and Technology Transfer Platform. An interesting research question becomes whether and to what extent the academia can contribute to territorial development policies in South-East region of Romania? METHODS: This research-paper highlights the main characteristics of the academic environment of South-East region analysing at intra-regional level, the educational offer and the results of HEIs activities in the fields of research and knowledge transfer. RESULTS: A Smart University should first and foremost help the local community to develop their territorial capital, which is defined by OCDE as “an ensemble of geographical (accessibility, agglomeration economies, natural resources), economic (factor endowments, competences), cognitive (knowledge, human capital, cooperation networks), social (solidarity, trust, associations), and cultural assets (“understandings, customs and informal rules that enable economic agents to work together under conditions of uncertainty”).
