An increasing number of young people from the Republic of Moldova choose to continue their studies in Romania, preferring faculties such as Economics, Law, or Construction. The diverse offerings and facilities for future students are presented at the Romanian Universities Fair, which is taking place today in the “Stefan cel Mare” Public Garden in Chisinau, reports IPN.
The event coordinator, Andreea Mihai, mentioned that the educational offer is very diverse. According to her, the fair is meant to provide future students with all the necessary information to facilitate their journey during the admission period. Thus, they can make well-informed choices, opting for the university they truly desire and the specialization that sparks their interest.
Vanessa Lozan, a student originally from Moldova at the “Stefan cel Mare” University in Suceava, presented the study offer within the institution. For Romanians everywhere, between 10 and 20 budgeted places are available at each faculty. According to her, the most sought-after is the Faculty of Economics, Administration, and Business, especially the specializations in Accounting, Management Informatics, and Economic Informatics.
“For me, it was a priority to go to Romania. I knew that there were more opportunities there and the University of Suceava was the optimal choice, as the conditions are very good, including in the dormitories, and the academic environment is very friendly. I knew I wanted to go into international relations and one of the universities I chose was this one,” Vanessa Lozan recounted.
Ioan Ghimciuc, a member of the Association of Bessarabian Students from Craiova, represented the University of Craiova at the fair in Chisinau. The young man reported that the university has four places for Romanians from everywhere at the budget with scholarship at the Faculty of Agronomy, 12 such places at the Faculty of Automation, Computers and Electronics. The Faculty of Law has 22 places at the budget with scholarship for Romanians from everywhere, and at the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration there are 19 such places. According to him, the Faculty of Law and the Faculty of Automation, Computers and Electronics enjoy increased interest among young Moldovans.
Also, the most sought after among the youth of Moldova are the Business Faculty and the Faculty of European Studies at the Babes-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, where 15 scholarship places are offered for Romanians everywhere. Ilie Ursu, a student originally from Moldova, said he was attracted by the prestige of the university and the substantial scholarships.
“It is important to organize such an event in Moldova to increase competition, so that graduates can choose what is most convenient for them, to be able to study abroad, which has now become much more accessible”, Ilie Ursu added.
Another young man from Moldova is Dumitru Pirlog, a graduate of the “Ovidius” University in Constanta. According to him, Bessarabian students who choose to study at this university have many advantages – starting with free dormitory places and continuing with attractive scholarships.
This year, the Federation of Bessarabian Youth is organizing the university fair not only in Chisinau, but also in the cities of Ungheni, Balti, and Causeni.
