Faculty of Exact Sciences
Aurel Vlaicu University Arad
•The Faculty of Exact Sciences, one of the nine
faculties of Aurel Vlaicu University of Arad,
was set up starting from the existence of a
body of specialised academic staff organised
within the framework of the Mathematics and
Computer Science Department.
•This department was meant to provide
expertise to all the university faculties,
covering all the Mathematics and Computer
Science courses in the curriculum.
1. The College of Information Tehnology was founded in
2001. After having counted four generations of graduates,
the faculty had to reconsider its programmes as the
short-term higher education was ceased.
2. The long-term higher education providing four years
of Computer Science study was introduced for the
university year 2002-2003.
3. In 2003, the Faculty of Exact Sciences was set up,
according to a Government Decision HG 693/2003.
4. At the beginning of the university year 2006-2007, the
Faculty of Exact Sciences provided a new study
programme: Mathematics –Computer Science.
The Faculty of Exact Sciences is located in the new
building of Aurel Vlaicu University, Elena Dragoi
Street, Complex M Micalaca.
Since 2003, this location has provided adequate
conditions of work and study for both the staff and
the students of the Faculty of Exact Sciences.
5. In 2009, The Romanian Agency for Quality Assurance in Higher Education
(ARACIS) accredited the study programme( Level 1) Computer Science at the
Faculty of Exact Sciences.
6. In the same year, the Faculty of Exact Science offered a Level 2 study
programme, Master in Computer Science, following the Decision of Aurel
Vlaicu University Senate. In February 2011 this programme titled Applied
Informatics in Science, Technology and Economy was accredited by ARACIS
Council.
7. In 2011, the study programme Bachelor Degree in Computer Science Distance Learning was accredited by ARACIS.
8. In 2012, the study programme Bachelor Degree in Mathematics – Computer
Science was accredited by ARACIS.
9. In 2013, the study programme Bachelor Degree in Applied Computer Science
( whose language of study is English) was authorised by the Romanian Agency
for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ARACIS).
10. In 2014, the study programme Master in Mathematics Modellation in
Research and Didactics , an international programme (whose language of
study is English), was accredited by the same ARACIS.
•The Faculty of Exact Sciences has a a four-year Research
Strategy Plan acording to the Research Strategy Plan of
Aurel Vlaicu University of Arad.
• Moreover, the Faculty of Exact Sciences has an annual plan
for research and development including research themes for
both academic staff and students.
• In addition to this, the Faculty of Exact Sciences benefits
from a research center on Mathematical Models and IT
Systems.
•The academic staff and the research staff are engaged in
research activities whose results are published in specialised
journals abroad or in Romania, presented during national
or international conferences and symposiums.
• As of 2006, Aurel Vlaicu University of Arad organizes every two
years an international conference titled „International Symposium Research and Education in Innovation Era”.
•The academic staff at the Faculty of Exact Sciences has brought a
substantial contribution to this conference by getting involved in
the organization of the activities in „Mathematics and Computer
Science” section. The papers presented have been published in the
volumes of „Proceedings of the International Symposium Research
and Education in Innovation Era”. (2006, 2008, 2010, 2012).
•The Annals of Aurel Vlaicu University of Arad, the MathematicsComputer Science Series have been reorganised so as to make it
possible for the Faculty of Exact Sciences to publish the journal
“Theory and Applications of Mathematics & Computer Science”,
ISSN 2067-2764, indexed in the international data basis.
