PURPOSE OF THE PROCEDURE

The procedure establishes the methods by which the automatic recognition of the status of doctoral supervisor or habilitation obtained in accredited foreign higher education institutions is carried out for persons who wish to work within the “Ștefan cel Mare” University of Suceava.

SCOPE OF APPLICATION

The procedure is used within the “Ştefan cel Mare” University of Suceava for the recognition of the status of doctoral supervisor or habilitation obtained in accredited foreign higher education institutions.

This procedure applies to Romanian citizens, citizens of Member States of the European Union, the European Economic Area, the Swiss Confederation, and citizens of third countries who have obtained the legal right to supervise doctorates in accredited foreign higher education or research and development institutions.

CONTENT

Romanian citizens, citizens of EU Member States, the European Economic Area, or the Swiss Confederation may obtain the recognition certificate for habilitation as follows:

a) specialists who have the status of doctoral supervisor in one of the EU Member States or the European Economic Area or in the Swiss Confederation automatically acquire the status of doctoral supervisor in Romania through recognition and issuance of the habilitation recognition certificate by the institutions organizing doctoral studies;
b) specialists who have the status of doctoral supervisor in one of the higher education institutions outside the countries listed in item a), which are among the most prestigious higher education institutions in the world, according to the order of the Minister of Education approving the list of prestigious universities from other countries, automatically acquire the status of doctoral supervisor in Romania through recognition and issuance of the habilitation recognition certificate by the institutions organizing doctoral studies;
c) specialists who are doctoral supervisors within institutions abroad, other than those mentioned in item a) or b), acquire the status of doctoral supervisor in Romania through recognition and issuance of the habilitation recognition certificate by the institutions organizing doctoral studies based on an international mutual recognition agreement.
​
In order to recognize the status of doctoral supervisor or habilitation, the applicant submits a recognition file that includes the following documents:
a) recognition request (Annex 1);
b) identity document - copy - and proof of name change - copy and legalized translation (if applicable);
c) PhD diploma, if the education document is obtained in Romania or at one of the accredited higher education institutions mentioned in para. 5.1.2, points a and b, or the recognition document issued by IOSUD, or, as the case may be, by CNRED, according to the Methodology regarding the recognition of the PhD diploma and the title of doctor in sciences or in a professional field obtained abroad, approved by Ministerial Order 7234/2024 - copy and legalized translation (if applicable);
d) proof of the status of doctoral supervisor or habilitation, issued by the institutions mentioned in para. (5.1.2) - copy and legalized translation (if applicable).
Legalized translation of documents from points c) and d) is not required for persons who have obtained degrees from accredited higher education institutions in EU Member States, the European Economic Area, or the Swiss Confederation.

The file can be submitted to the USV registry, sent by post, or through PCUe.

The decision of recognition / non-recognition of the status of doctoral supervisor is issued by the Rector of USV based on the evaluation of the committee and is valid and produces legal effects at the level of USV.

The recognition certificate of habilitation is issued by USV IOSUD specifying the accredited field of doctoral studies according to the nomenclature of fields and specializations/programs of university studies and the structure of higher education institutions, approved by Government decision. (2) If USV IOSUD does not have in its structure the field for which recognition is requested, by exception, for the establishment of that doctoral field, recognition is done in the branch of science to which the field belongs, provided in the nomenclature of fields and specializations/programs of university studies and the structure of higher education institutions, approved by Government decision.

The recognition certificate will be issued in two copies, one of which is sent to the applicant and one is archived at the CSUD secretariat.


Issuance of the certificate of recognition

The recognition certificate is issued to the holder or to a person empowered by notarized power of attorney.

In case of loss, destruction or deterioration of the recognition certificate, a duplicate shall be issued, upon request, after consulting the archive.

Recognition certificates issued in accordance with this procedure are recognized only within USV.

Appeal routes

The decision of the Recognition Commission can be appealed only once, within 10 days from the communication, through a reasoned request submitted at the USV registry, sent by post or via PCUe.

In the situation where the applicant for recognition submits an appeal, the Rector appoints an appeal commission made up of three members, in which other persons than those from the Recognition Commission will be designated.

The members of the commissions will decline their participation in the case of a possible incompatibility specified by the regulations in force.

The results of the evaluation are recorded in a report that will be part of the recognition file and will be signed by all members of the appeals commission.

The duration for solving the appeal is a maximum of 10 working days from the date of registration of the appeal. The resolution term stipulated above can be extended in justified cases, the applicant being informed in writing, by postal courier or electronic mail.

The solution of the appeals commission, recorded in a report, can be challenged at the competent courts within the area of Suceava municipality.
