SCOPE OF APPLICATION

The procedure is used within the "Ştefan cel Mare" University of Suceava for teaching positions in university education obtained in accredited university educational institutions abroad.

CONTENT

Teaching positions in university education obtained in accredited higher education institutions in member states of the European Union, the European Economic Area, the Swiss Confederation, and in prestigious higher education institutions in other countries included in the List of prestigious universities from other states, approved by ministerial order and periodically updated, are automatically recognized by higher education institutions in Romania.

Teaching positions obtained in other accredited higher education institutions than those mentioned in the previous paragraph may be recognized, as appropriate, with the observance of the minimum requirements for occupying a teaching position in Romanian higher education in force at the date of submitting the recognition request and the requirements provided in Regulation R51.


For the recognition of teaching positions in university education obtained in accredited higher education institutions abroad, a recognition commission at USV is designated by the rector, consisting of at least 4 members, including:
a) vice-rector for scientific research / vice-rector for academic activity and quality assurance / CSUD director. Two of those enumerated will participate in the commission, as appropriate, of which one will be appointed as president;
b) a lawyer;
c) secretary. The secretary does not have the right to decide within the commission.
The commission may include alternate members, specialists in the field.
The decisions of the recognition commission are made unanimously by the president and two members. If any suspicions regarding the authenticity of the study documents are identified, the commission notifies the competent authorities.

If the applicant submits an appeal, the Rector appoints an appeal commission consisting of three members, in which different people than those from the recognition commission are designated.
The members of the commissions will decline participation in the event of any possible incompatibility specified by the regulations in force.
Recognition certificates issued according to this procedure are valid and produce legal effects only within USV.
