I. BACKGROUND

In 2014, research within Spiru Haret University was conducted according to the strategic

objectives and directions formulated in the Strategy for consolidation of excellence in research for

2014 – 2020 of Spiru Haret University. The strategy covered the need to integrate Spiru Haret

University in the European Research Area (ERA) as well as the Romanian society’s vision on the role

of science, technology and innovation within universities, also expressed both in the National

Strategy for Research, Development and Innovation for 2014 – 2020, approved by Government

Resolution 929 / 20141 and in the National Plan for Research, Development and Innovation for 2014

– 2020 – an essential tool for the implementation of the National Strategy.

In this respect, 2014 was a sum-up year, sketching out the results of the implementation of

the Strategy for consolidation of excellence in research for 2014 – 2020 of Spiru Haret University, but

also an opportunity for self-assessment following two important external institutional evaluations,

namely the evaluation conducted by the European University Association, by the Institutional

Evaluation Program2 and ARACIS institutional evaluation, for changing the confidence rating. The

evaluation was an opportunity for Spiru Haret University to be granted the ‘trust’ degree.

The USH Research Report for 2014 is meant to be a “mirror” of the entire research work, of

the progress recorded, and also a tool to assess the compliance with the strategic objectives

intended for 2014 – 2020.

Spiru Haret University committed to contribute directly to the attainment of the strategic

objectives defined by the National Strategy for Research, Development and Innovation for 2014 –

2020, approved by Government Resolution 929 / 2014, and to the accomplishment of the activities

covered by the National Plan for Research, Development and Innovation for 2014 – 2020 – an

essential tool for the implementation of the National Strategy. The Report on the research findings

for 2014 (RC – USH / 2014) aims at reflecting the USH actual contribution to the attainment of the

national strategic objectives.

The general objectives of the National Strategy for Research, Development and Innovation

for 2014 – 2020 are as follows:

OG1. The increase in the competitiveness of the Romanian economy via innovation. The

objective aims to support the performance of the economic operators on the global value chains. The

strategy assists the transition from the cost-competitiveness to the innovation-based

competitiveness. The latter involves the development of the ability of the companies to absorb the

state-of-the-art technology, to adjust it to the needs of the markets they operate on and to develop –

in their turn – technologies or services that will allow progress on the value chains.

Romanian universities” was implemented in 47 universities of Romania, in partnership with the European

University Association (EUA): http://pe.forhe.ro/ro/despre-proiect-2. Spiru Haret University was part of the

target group and subject to the institutional evaluation between December 2012 and January 2014. The report

OG2. Increase of the Romanian contribution to the progress of the border knowledge. The

strategy supports a higher international visibility of research and experimental development in

Romania. The activities of research and development (CD) at the knowledge border require building

a critical pool of researchers in the most promising areas, maintenance of the leverage in the niche

areas, where the Romanian research has taken steps forward in an advantage – consecrated or

emerging -, international standards of evaluation for research projects, and large scale initiatives,

namely the ones developed around the important infrastructures.

OG3. Increase of the role played by science in the society. Science and technology become

relevant for the society when their effects are visible in the daily life of the citizen. To this purpose,

research and innovation respond to the real needs of the economic environment and public sector,

mainly for a higher quality of the services (such as the health and security of the citizens) and provide

attractive employment outlooks in the private sector of as large a number of people as possible. The

strategy aims to both solve the social issues via innovative solutions and provide expertise in drafting

the public policies.

Specific objectives:

OS1. Building a stimulating environment for the initiative of the private sector, by

instruments of engaging the entrepreneurship and valorification of all CD results, as well as by

credibilization of the partnerships between the public and private operators.

OS2. Supporting intelligent specialization, by concentrating the resources in research and

innovation areas with economic relevance and proven CD potential, by public-public partnerships

that will lead to concentration, efficiency and effectiveness, and public-private ones that will release

the identified potential.

OS3. Concentrating an important part of the research activities, development and innovation

(CDI) on society issues, for the development of the CDI public sector’s capacity to request and adopt

the research findings and respond to certain issues related to the global challenges of great

importance for Romania.

OS4. Supporting the strive to excellence in research at the knowledge frontier by

internationalization of the research in Romania, international evaluation, a higher attractiveness of

the Romanian CDI system, by mobility and partnerships.

Transversal specific objectives:

OS5. Reaching the critical mass of researchers until 2020, required for turning the CDI into a

factor of economic growth, by providing a quick and sustainable numerical and qualitative

development of the human resources in research, development and innovation.

OS6. Developing a competitive research organization, able to become regional and global

operators, by stimulating the defragmentation of the CDI system, concentrating resources and

finding a priority in their designation, replacing the public-public and public-private partnerships,

financing science and the evaluation of its impact, new financing models for an easier innovation.

7

Main action guidelines:

The specific objectives associated with the new strategic cycle are implemented by a series of

guidelines. Their role is to structure the innovation system in Romania. The guidelines shape a path

of systemic transformation and design the coordinates of the correlated evolution of the main CDI

operators.

• Creating a stimulating environment for the initiative of the private sector

- Fiscal credits

- Risk capital and guarantee capital funds

- Intellectual property management

• Supporting intelligent specialization

- Projects initiated by companies

- Competence centres

- Transfer infrastructures and innovation incubators

In order to position Spiru Haret University in the European Research Area (ERA) in the year

2014, numerous approaches have been adopted, and the most important ones are described below.

As a member of Working Group 4 of Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R), as

of September 2012, Spiru Haret University has been present at all scheduled meetings. Spiru Haret

University was the only Romanian university whose candidacy was accepted for the integration into

the Group 4 of the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers, thus having the opportunity to

contribute directly to the consolidation of the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers at

European level.

8

Thus, in 2014, the USH team participated in the Third Mutual Learning Seminar3, under the

topic of describing the process of drafting the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers at the

institutional level. Similarly, Spiru Haret University attended the ‘Sharing experience to better

implement the HRS4R’ seminar in Brussels, on 20 October 2014. It is important to notice that the

main active participants were selected in a competition. Romania was represented by Spiru Haret

University, one of the six universities winners of the competition invited to share their experience in

the strategy development. The presentation during a European event has brought a better image to

our institution.

Since October 2013, Spiru Haret University has been the recipient of the Human Resources

Excellence in Research” logo, awarded by DG Research & Innovation of the European Commission, a

confirmation of the capacity of our University to implement the principles of the European Charter of

Researchers, as well as the stipulations in the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers.

During 2014, a series of activities took place, included in the list of the Table of the

implementation activities for HRS4R4, as follows:

Chapter I Professional and ethical issues

1. Research freedom – a working group was created, designed to define the limitations of the

researchers and identifying their manner of solution; hence, a report will be drafted with a

list of them, as well as the impact of these constraints in the research activity.

2. Professional attitude – The Single Register of Projects (online) has been operationalized and

is updated in real time, as a consequence of the appropriate functioning of the inter-

department group (ICCS, Human Resources, Accounting) established in order to provide the

conditions of the optimum implementation of the projects.

3. Legal and contractual duties – this section on the research webpage5 was created, meant to

the financing opportunities for researchers; the research projects are monitored in regards

to the fulfilment of the legal and contractual duties.

Chapter II Recruitment

According to the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers, Spiru Haret University

opened an account on Euraxess Jobs portal in 2014 and started publishing the vacant positions, in

order to increase the transparency of the recruitment process of the researchers.

Chapter III Work conditions and social security

Higher mobility

Spiru Haret University, by its Department of Erasmus Community Programs, has taken all the

measures that will improve the ERASMUS Mobility Program, both for academia and students.

3 The Seminar took place between 2 and 3 of October 2014 and was hosted by Rovira i Virgili University (URV)

in Tarragon, Spain, organized by DG Research & Innovation – European Commission in Tarragona 4 The schedule for the activities in the Strategy of Human Resources for Researchers,

After the enactment of the new National Education Act (Act 1 / 2011) with all the deriving

methodological and procedural effects and of Government Resolution 1062 / 2011, as added in 2012,

on the approval of the Methodological rules for the evaluation and classification of the national

research units and institutions for certification, a realistic self-evaluation of all research-related issues

– starting from statistical data management, to organisation and strategic orientation – was

imperative. The reason is that the Institutional Evaluation Report, prepared by EUA-IEP team,

includes itemized6 recommendations concerning the research works.

Thus, in the chapter on Research, the recommendations made by the foreign experts were:

► The EUA-IEP evaluation team recommends that, if possible for a university, this institution

should refrain itself from the ARACIS accreditation criteria stipulating at least one research centre for

each accredited specialization and reconsider the number of its research centres by closing or

merging some of them following an internal procedure. Moreover, the evaluation team suggests

that USH make a clear difference between the research activity and the one that supports and

coordinates research. The latter represents a management duty that should be organized at the

central level of USH, while the former is conducted by individual researchers within faculties that

need to find research partners for programs coordinated in other faculties. As for this aspect, the

evaluation team recommends that ICCS act as unit of central support that does not conduct research

per se but it provides support at the level of central management for the research activity carried out

at the de-centralized level of USH. This support would include, among others, the duty to provide

assistance in the preparation of the proposals of research projects for financing and for building the

corresponding capacity by the researchers, as well as the mission of collecting funds by identifying

new financing sources for research.

► The evaluation team also considers important and reasonable that USH make efforts for

developing a research-based specific profile. In this case, the evaluation team recommends that this

profile be built based on a multi-discipline approach that will come beyond each individual research

centre. To this purpose, USH should establish a small number of new such centres (not more than

four), as a consequence of the bottom-up development process, relying on a careful internal

evaluation of the current strengths and future opportunities.

The EUA team conducted the institutional evaluation of Spiru Haret University during a

national evaluation between 2012 and 2014 within the Performance in Research, Performance in

Training – Quality, Diversity and Innovation in Romanian Universities Project – Ready for Innovating,

ready for better serving the local needs – Quality and Diversity of the Romanian Universities. As a

result of this national evaluation, the EUA-IEP team compiled the Ten priorities for Romanian Higher

Education Report. In this Report, the evaluation team made more recommendations, where some of

them concern the research activity at the national level.

Here are some recommendations:

Recommendation no. 21: Romanian should create appropriate research infrastructures, to

increase the financing level based on competitive research bases, perceived as priority, and provide

incentives for the private investments in the public research (e.g., by fiscal deductions). The national

authorities should pay a greater attention to the financing availability for interdisciplinary research,

as well as in the sector of social sciences and humanistic sciences. The national priorities derived

6 http://www.eua.be/iep/types-of-evaluations/coordinated-evaluations.aspx

10

from Horizon 2020 would help with the boosting of the Romanian financing. The universities can be

assisted to interact with the research-development departments of the multinational companies,

when such departments are located outside Romania.

Recommendation no. 22: Romania should decrease the fragmentation of the research teams

by stimulating the development of institutional alliances and networks, as well as by revising the

criteria for establishing the research centres, for financing and accreditation.

Recommendation no. 23: The universities should focus on the following aspects, for

consolidating their research competences:

To develop a research strategy, based on clear priorities, and to create financing instruments

to support it. The strategies should consider the current strengths and their sustainability, the

existence of a balance between the theoretical and applied research, the need to promote

interdisciplinary research, the areas with a potential growth (the ones related to the interface with

the business sector and the technical activities and the ones on knowledge transfer; to look at the

applied research as being a good means of developing the research capacity; the introduction of a

supervisory mechanism in order to build an innovative academic fund; the re-allocation of the

internal resources and the rewarding of the outstanding achievements.

In order to provide a good supervision and appropriate research structures, the following are

required7:

- To guarantee that the Research Pro-rector plays an appropriate role regarding the

activities of management, monitoring and coordination and is able to develop, carry out

and oversee the research strategy of the University;

- To evaluate the activity in the research centres, to reconsider their number, as well as

the opportunity to regroup them;

- To create or consolidate the research support office. Its role should include at least the

monitoring and dissemination of information regarding the financing opportunities for

research and provide assistance during the process of application. Ideally, this office

should make sure that the University is aware of the international norms and values in

the research area, to develop a database for the research activities, to test and quantify

them, implement the ‘fair chance’ and diversity in education and award cash incentives.

All the above involves the employment of qualified staff.

Provision of financing and the optimization in using these funds:

- Development of alternative financing sources: alumni, sponsorships and applied

research.

- The use of equipment and labs should be maximum, at least via cooperation among

faculties. Such a cooperation should extend – in an ideal case – to the other universities

in the same area and to the industry, when possible.

- Building regional clusters would be an important step forward.

evaluations between 2012 and 2014

11

Increase the international visibility by joining European and international projects, boosting

and supporting the people publishing in foreign languages, invitations made to foreign researchers,

sending the academia abroad, as well as the development and implementation of a language policy.

Building a research culture:

- Organizing events for showcasing positive examples from the University research;

- Focusing on the young researchers, by providing training courses in research

methodologies, while lowering the number of teaching hours, financing them and

supporting their training.

- The journals, published by the University, should include a significant percentage of

external contributors, should be selective and periodically evaluated in order to see

whether benefits justify the costs.

Evaluation: The use of certain indicators that are internationally acknowledged, along with

the analysis of the differences among the subjects and the need to evaluate the applied research via

other indices than bibliometric; a reference system.

Focussing on the attainment of the strategic objectives set forth by the Strategy for

consolidation of excellence in research for 2007 – 2013 and particularly on the integration into the

European Research Area (ERA), USH became an eligible partner in the Horizon 2020 Programme. In

this position, our University filed three project proposals in 2014.

The changes brought by the National Education Act 1 / 2011 imposed the reorganisation of

USH research work as follows:

1. the 2011 USH Charter was amended. Therefore, pursuant to article 21, paragraphs 1 and 2,

section 4, Title II – USH organisation structure, the CENTRAL RESEARCH INSTITUTE was the

structure coordinating the University research centres from scientific and methodological

perspectives;

2. the research procedures were re-reviewed, amended and subject to approval in order to

comply with the new legal provisions and to meet the institutional needs in terms of quality

management. This led to the update of the Quality Manual, the 2013 version covering the

research operational procedures;

3. the annual evaluation of all teaching staff / researchers as well as of all USH research

centres was implemented;

4. at the end of 2014, the Single Project Register (RUP) listing in a chronological order all the

implemented projects, whether pending or as proposals, covered 380 projects, of which 22

were new registrations from 2014 and 1 project of a national financing from POSDRU

structural funds of SC Mass Media Romania de Maine SRL8;

5. the annual USH research publication review was conducted;

6. USH researchers entered the ResearchID network administered by Thomson Reuters, which

facilitated international visibility, communication and cooperation among researchers and

the promotion of joint research projects, in order to access the funding sources (111

researchers of USH are listed in the ResearchID, at the moment of drafting the report herein);

8 Romania de Maine SRL Mass Media Society includes Romania de Maine Foundation among its shareholders,

the founder of Spiru Haret University.

12

7. permanent update of the http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro portal. A novelty was the

introduction of the “ EU research funding opportunities”, “National funding opportunities”,

“Research mobilities – internships”, ResearchGate, ResearcherID, ORCID, SCImago Journal &

13

Country Rank buttons to provide the researchers the necessary research-related information

and for a better promotion of the USH academic community concerns;

8. the Human Resources Excellence in Research logo granted to Spiru Haret University, the

European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of

Researchers, the Internal analysis on the implementation of the principles of the European

Charter for Researchers and of the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers were

posted on the http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro web portal.

14

The research work concentrated all USH teaching staff (a total of 508 tenured and 60 non-

tenured teaching staff in 2014 – figure 1), irrespective of the academic ranks. They participated in

individual and / or collective research themes.

Figure 1 Structure of full-time and associated researchers in 2014

Each teaching staff member must assign at least 30% of the total hours, for research,

resulting in an average of 12 hours per week / academic staff member. The weekly time for research

is of 12 hours for each teacher and the ‘monthly total time in research’ was of a maximum (12 hours

x 4 weeks x number of academia in research) 24384 hours/month for research.

The periodical (biannual) research evaluation was one of the priorities of the University

management. The procedures and methodologies on quality in research are to be found in the

Quality Manual, the 2013 edition, as added and reviewed, while the research work was set forth by

the Regulations on research at Spiru Haret University. Similarly, the research quality procedures

were updated in order to comply with the latest statutory instruments on research (Act 1 / 2011 and

GR 1062 / 2011).

Prior to the enforcement of Act 1 / 2011 and of GR 1062 / 2011, the research at USH was

coordinated and conducted by the specialty chairs, and subsequently, the research centres / areas of

research, operating under the resolution of the USH Senate of 7 February 2008, became in charge

with research.

In 2014, UEFISCDI, MECTS continued the nationwide implementation of some strategic

projects which also covered components of assessment of quality in research and Spiru Haret

University was part of the target group.

Such a strategic project was the UEFISCDI project “Ready to innovate, ready to better

answer the local needs. Quality and diversity of Romanian universities”, initiated by MECTS, in

partnership with the European University Association (EUA).

15

This project had the following specific objectives:

- Evaluation of 47 Romanian universities, based on an international evaluation

methodology.

- Development of the capacity of reporting and evaluation at the level of higher education

institutions.

- Development of the capacity of conducting institutional evaluation by the institutions in

charge from Romania.

- Development and implementation of a mechanism of data collection and analysis, for the

primary evaluation of the universities.

- Facilitation of the knowledge transfer by developing an ‘Observator’-type platform for

analysis and regular reporting in terms of the policies of ranking/evaluation of the

universities.

- Development and providing a training programme for the academia on the topic of

integrity and delivery of a ethics and integrity methodology of the evaluation process for

the universities.

- Development of the capacity of prospective analysis for the substantiation of the

decisions regarding the improvement of the networks, building consortia and having the

university mergers.

The implementation of the Institutional Evaluation Programme within USH contributed to

increased self-awareness and self-management at institutional level.

The long-term purpose of the evaluation is increasing the Romanian universities’ capacity to

contribute to the national economic and social development.

Also, starting with 2013, USH has been a partner in the PN-II-CT-PI-CD-2 CAPACITATI project,

“Large investment projects in CD infrastructure-Networking / infrastructure access projects” sub-

programme amounting to 33,259,424 €, initiated by Anelis Plus Association Continuing e-access to

scientific literature at national level and new ways to support and promote the research system in

Romania / ANELIS PLUS. This project provides the USH researchers and students access to new

international scientific databases as THOMSON WEB OF SCIENCE, JOURNAL CITATION REPORTS,

DERWENT INNOVATION INDEX, EBSCO ACADEMIC SEARCH COMPLETE and PROQUEST.

II. RESEARCH AREAS – analysis of research development per areas

There are currently 24 departments operating at the level of each Faculty, plus 2 more within

Spiru Haret University. The research bodies are in charge of their strategic coordination, while the

organisation and logistics have been lying with the research centres which report to the Central

Research Institute.

There are no structures supporting interdisciplinary research and the strategic orientation

mentioned in the 2007 – 2013 Strategy failed to capitalise entirely the research potential of the

university.

Following an analysis of the current structures as well as of the research strategies

formulated by European universities or research institutes as European Science Foundation,

European Research Area, Oxford University and the like, we determined the need for strategic

reorientation aiming to capitalize the interdisciplinary research9.

9 http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro/docs/STRATEGIA%20CERCETARII%20USH%202014-2020.PDF

16

The research activity has been structured into 5 major research areas at USH:

• Sciences

• Social sciences

• Economics

• Humanities

• Arts & Architecture

Figure 2 shows the research potential / areas expressed by the number and percentage of

researchers in 2014, as follows:

• Sciences: 53 researchers

• Social sciences: 218 researchers

• Economics: 156 researchers

• Humanities: 72 researchers

• Arts & Architecture: 69 researchers

Figure 2 Structure of researchers / areas of research

We reached such a structure by referring equally to the research outcomes per areas

recorded between 2007 and 2014 and to the strategic objectives assumed by USH under the 2014 –

2020 Research Strategy. To increase the research visibility and to properly capitalise on the research

findings, we elaborated and implemented a marketing strategy to promote and support the

Cercetare Spiru Haret brand in the long run.

As of now, the USH research areas concentrate research teams from 24 faculties and 24

research centres (APPENDIX 1).

17

We summarise below the research findings per areas, to be separately detailed in the

appendices.

Sciences area

It concentrates the teaching staff from the faculties of Mathematics and Informatics,

Geography and Veterinary Medicine, who conduct research work, individually or in teams, within the

following centres:

• Centre of Research in Mathematics and Informatics;

• Centre of Research for Veterinary Medical Sciences “VETSCIENCE”.

This area is characterised by a low number of researchers (53 persons, where 42 tenured and

11 non-tenured), resulting in approx. 9% of the total number of USH researchers.

It is worth noticing the interest of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in submitting the

nationally funded project of applied research – The National Plan PN II 2007 – 2013, a project to win

in 2014: ‘Technology of protective selenium bio-fortification of the cruciferous cultures for producing

functional foods with a safe and constant content of chemo-preventive compounds (SAFE – SEL)’.

The general objective of these projects consists in the technical and scientific cooperation in

order to develop a technology of protective bio-fortification of selenium, so as to derive chemo-

preventive functional foods with an optimum effect upon the human health. The specific objectives

are as such:

- Development of new means of technological intervention (new inputs in the culture

technology of the cruciferous and methods for their implementation);

- Testing the new means of technological intervention and their integration with durable

practices of cruciferous cultivation;

- Confirmation of the status of safe and functional food for the products derived from the

protective bio-fortification technology with selenium and the analysis of the technical

and economic efficiency.

Qualitative aspects of research in the Sciences area

The research work conducted by the teaching staff, researchers, master candidates and

students of the Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics has contributed greatly to knowledge

development, on the one hand, and to professionally, efficiently and promptly solving the complex

issues of local and national economy, on the other. Mathematics and Informatics, by means of

deductive reasoning, the properties of abstract entities (numbers, geometric shapes, functions,

spaces and the like), the relations between them in theory, practice and by means of information

18

technologies. From the research perspective, the mission of the Faculty of Mathematics and

Informatics consists in research in mathematics and informatics:

- Development of the research directions in theoretical mathematics, financial

mathematics, actuarial mathematics and risk theory, mathematics applied in mechanics,

social and human sciences and engineering.

- Development of the research directions in theoretical informatics, applied informatics

and information technology, so as to assure the participation in national and

international research programmes.

The Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics promotes the following set of values:

professionalism in research, ethics, performance in research (resulting in internationally recognised

publications / articles, ISI publications / articles, active role in national and international conferences,

actual accomplishments at economic and social levels), execution of contracts and continuous

professional development of research human resources.

The points of interest of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in research for 2014- 2020 are as

follows: improving the contribution of veterinary medicine in health, agriculture, an environment

with a direct, economic (economic and public utility) and social relevance; development of research-

development-innovation activities in areas of public relevance (health); building an incentive

environment for the private sector and providing the research findings, integration of research in

programmes in the national and international scientific area.

For 2014- 2020, the academia at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine aims to approach the

following research topics:

I. Integrated studies at the farm level and provision of a decisional multi-criterion support

for the farm management

II. Safety, security and protection of the fodder and foods

III. Means and methods of improving the immune response in animals

IV. Research for developing vaccines, medicines, techniques of preventing illnesses;

alternative to antibiotics; biomaterials for the regenerative medicine

V. Methods and means of detecting and monitoring the pollutants

VI. Pharmacology and toxicology: correlation, modelling, prediction

VII. Applied, interdisciplinary and inter-institutional research10

.

For 2014 - 2020, the Faculty of Geography primarily aims at consolidating the high-level

research work and at aligning to the European Research Area priorities and objectives - ERA.

The major issues making the object of geographical research, whether approached at the

faculty or chair level or individually, are vital issues of mankind: the condition of the environment and

of the environmental factors, population dynamics, conceptual and fundamental changes on the

urban and rural spaces, the management of the economic resources and activities on the sustainable

development background. In line with the evolution of the global climatic conditions and the trend

of the economic activities, the importance of research in Geography is still valid for the future, thus

justifying the continuation of such concerns of the academia at the Faculty.

Research has an interdisciplinary value, the findings serving other sciences, such as sociology,

economics and environmental science.

While considering the outcomes recorded so far, issues as landscape dynamics and its role in

the development of climatic and hydrological factors, changes in the bio-pedo-geographical factors,

10

Information selected from the faculty website – The 2014 – 2020 Research Plan.

19

population dynamics, economic mutations, natural and technogenic risks and the like, will be further

approached.

Qualitative aspects in Arts and Architecture

Architecture is primarily a science, but also an art. In a broad sense, architecture is the art

and science to design and build various structures, from buildings to monuments and the like…

Architecture is an expression and a document of human civilisation. Balzac, for instance, considered

that up to a certain point, architecture was the expression of the civilisation of a people”.

The Faculty of Architecture of USH individualises through its commitment to the

rejuvenation, reconditioning and restoration of the built heritage, particularly to the introduction of

the said heritage into a record system. In this respect, applied research covers mapping, surveys,

documentation included in the research programmes on the conservation and capitalisation of the

built heritage. Last but not least, research within the Faculty of Architecture focuses on the cultural

heritage in the international context of promoting a policy of safeguarding, protection and

capitalisation of the historical spaces. Among the research topics approached in the above-

mentioned context, we mention traditional architecture, as a model for a contemporary ecological

architecture, solar houses (an approach of alternative energies in designing the house),

contemporary interior design (issues of urban habitation), phenomenology architecture

(architecture, as an urban show), rehabilitation solutions for the facades of the existing buildings,

architectural details with the use of lightweight and enduring thermal insulation materials.

Arts (Acting and Music Pedagogy)16

Starting from its mission to train the future musicians and performers, the Faculty of Arts,

through its Music pedagogy and Performing arts (Acting) programmes of studies, focuses particularly

on the initial and continuing training of the youth. In this respect, we have in view the future

graduates finding employment according to the competence-related demands of the specific

professional environment. We focus on the development of the artistic creativity and on the

development of research in the artistic and educational areas as well as on the capitalisation and

dissemination of the learning outcomes.

Fundamental research collective topics:

- Contemporary performance syncretism (dancing, music, literature, speech)

- Folkloric theatre – educational and artistic features

- Dramatic theatre – specific approaches for music and theatre

- Perspectives of the scientific interpretation of the data on modes (theoretically and

ethnomusicologically)

Applied research collective topics:

- The musical sound – a component of the agrarian rituals and scientific approaches of its

study

16

The information was collected and summarised from the Strategy on research and artistic creation of the

Faculty of Architecture for 2014 - 2020

29

Quantitative aspects in Arts and Architecture

According to the data included in the Research outcome self-assessment card for 2014, filled

almost 18 days of full-time effort (on average).

An average of 2.33 published works / teaching staff member are recorded in this area.

Note on the visibility of the research outcomes at international level

The ISI indexed articles published by are available in the Thomson Reuters Database

http://apps.webofknowledge.com/.

This database is referred to biannually by the Central Research Institute. The 2013 report

reveals 66 ISI Web of Knowledge indexed articles. Twenty-five additional articles from 2013 were

indexed in 2014, following the assessment and approval for indexation of the publications where

30

these articles were accepted.

WEB OF SCIENCE source, accessed on 23 February 2015 reveals 31 ISI articles of Spiru Haret

University, published in 2014.

In total, Thomson Reuters Database hosts 385 ISI Web of Knowledge articles of Spiru Haret

University, for the 2005-2015 interval.

31

APPENDICES 7 and 8 cover a summary of the articles published by USH teaching staff in

2014, indexed in ISI Thomson Web of Knowledge (31 articles) and SCOPUS (34 articles) databases. Of

these, 11 articles are included in both databases.

III. USH position on the education market

Between December 2012 and January 2014, Spiru Haret University was part of the target

group and was subject to the institutional evaluation within the UEFISCDI project called “Ready to

innovate, ready to better answer the local needs. Quality and diversity of Romanian universities”,

implemented in 47 universities in Romania, in partnership with the European University Association

(EUA): http://pe.forhe.ro/ro/despre-proiect-2. A self-evaluation report was elaborated within the

institutional evaluation process, in line with the EUA Board demands.

IV. RESEARCHERS’ WORK ENVIRONMENT

The researchers’ work environment was another point of focus at USH level, in agreement

with research evaluation from a qualitative standpoint. To this end, we implemented the necessary

measures to provide a favourable working climate and culture in which the researchers and research

teams were assessed, encouraged and supported, benefiting from the necessary material and moral

support to attain the objectives and fulfil their assignments. In this context, a top priority was

organising the work and training conditions for junior researchers, for this would help them make

future options and stimulate them to embrace a career in the field.

32

V. SWOT analysis of research

A. Research centres’ work in 2014

For optimum research management, as provided in the Charter of Spiru Haret University,

article 21, the Central Research Institute further coordinates the operational units called Research

Centres, located both in Bucharest and at national level.

The research centres of Spiru Haret University are periodically subject to a qualitative

evaluation process covering, inter alia, their national and international visibility.

The research centres that do not have a webpage for research outcome dissemination are

supported by the Central Research Institute to create a proper online identity.

Research centres with web visibility

Of a total of 24 research centres (APPENDIX 9) operating within Spiru Haret University, only

13 centres have their own website. We identified a low web visibility, only 54.16% of the ICCS / USH

research centres have websites, which is totally discouraging. Besides, the 2015 ICCS activity plan

reads the concern of making available for the research centres a bilingual website template to be

administrated by the research centres and to cover the annual research plan, the research teams and

the accomplishments / teams, the publications, as a research outcome and the like.

As in the previous years, the research work of the centres results in the development of

collective and / or individual research topics included in the Research Plan of the faculties. The

research outcomes cover articles, books, book chapters and the like. We equally concentrate on

organising national and international scientific events participated by a growing number of people.

The fruit of our endeavour are the conference volumes issued by “Romania de Maine Foundation”

Publishing House and by other CNCS recognised publishing houses. The research outcomes may be

referred to on the websites of the research centres.

V. SWOT ANALYSIS

C. Education / research / services for the society ratio (optimum 50/30/20%)


Strengths - the teaching workload

described by Act no. 1 / 2011

which regulates the Teaching

Staff Status, covers two of the

components of the ratio:

education and research.

- there are procedures for the

academic performance

assessment (student survey,

peer-review, assessment by the

executive management of the

department)

- the teaching workload covers

the compulsoriness of the

research work (article287,

paragraph 1 of Act no. 1/2011);

- the selection and promotion of

the teaching staff are based on

research performance criteria.

- there are procedures of regular

indicators system to concurrently

assess the teaching staff involvement

in the three classes of activities:

education / research / services for the

society. The actual ratio can be

calculated and then be subsequently

- sub-funded research at the

state budget level lead to less

calls for grants, the

discontinuation of some

competitions resulting in limited

access.

- Initiating discussion forums / meetings

VI. RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE – achievements in 2014 (access to databases)

In order to provide all research-related conditions, USH allotted 2,456.7 sqm, divided into

three buildings located in Bucharest, and the research centres have their own spaces within the

faculties where they operate. The scientific documentation is available in 17 libraries, which cover

more than 56,984 titles in 230,887 volumes, as well as via the institutional access to national and

international databases.

47

Starting with 2013, the researchers of Spiru Haret University have had access to new

databases by means of the project Continuation of the national electronic access to the scientific

literature and new possibilities to assist and promote the research system in Romania /ANELIS

PLUS, a project financed within the National Plan of Research and Development 2007-2013, the

CAPACITIES programme, ‘Great projects of investments in the infrastructure of networking CD-

Projects/access to infrastructure’ sub-programme. The project was initiated by Anelis Plus

Association and Spiru Haret University has been a partner since 2013.

This project enables an extended access of the USH researchers and students to the

international scientific databases, THOMSON WEB OF SCIENCE, JOURNAL CITATION REPORTS,

DERWENT INNOVATION INDEX, EBSCO ACADEMIC SEARCH COMPLETE, PROQUEST. In 2014, the

students and researchers of Spiru Haret University also had access to the Euromonitor Passport

database through the POSDRU project Adapting the curriculum and the educational package to the

labour market demands. These databases are added to others, as LEGALIS and JSTOR, to which our

researchers and students gained access in 2011.

VII. COOPERATION IN RESEARCH

A great attention was paid in 2014 to the promotion of the projects of cooperation with

other universities and institutions, both in teaching (mainly with the Erasmus programme) and in

research.

Numerous partnerships for developing projects, building mixed teams, expanding the

networking system by social media visibility and for organising scientific events of an international

interest were concluded.

We mention below some of the partners:

• Alcide De Gasperi University of Euroregional Economy, Poland

• Instituto Politecnico do Porto, Instituto Superior de Contabilidade e Administracao, Portugal

• Federal State Educational Institution of Higher Professional Education “Krasnoyarsk State

Agrarian University”, Russia

• The Ural State University of Economics, Russia

• Volgograd State Agrarian University, Russia

• EDUCONS Univerzitet, Serbia

• Solski Centre Celje Visja Strokovna, Slovakia

• University of Primorska, Slovakia

• University of Ljubljana, Slovakia

• University of Maribor, Slovakia

• Faculty of Organisation Studies In Novo Mesto, Slovakia

• Universidad Catolica San Antonio De Murcia, Spain

• University of Salamanca, Spain

• Southern Taiwan University Of Science And Technology, Taiwan

• Kyrgyz-Turkish Manas University, Turkey

• Osmaniye Korkut Ata University, Turkey

• Halic University Istanbul, Turkey

• Istanbul Aydin University, Turkey

• Hitit University, Turkey

48

In a nutshell, the cooperation relations focused on the organization of scientific events in

partnerships, drafting project proposals for filing with research grant funded competitions, exchange

of publications, mobilities for academia and researchers and the like.

VIII. THE STATUS OF SPIRU HARET UNIVERSITY SCIENTIFIC PUBLICATIONS IN

2014

With respect to the scientific publications, a natural research result of all its academia, Spiru

Haret University aims to fully comply with the specific principles of Lisbon Agenda, as well as with

the national evaluation criteria stipulated by C.N.C.S., according to the document called ‘For a new

vision on research in Romania’ (http://www.cncs-nrc.ro/viziune/). To this end, Spiru Haret University

implements the principle of the preferential valorisation of the quality scientific production and the

principle of science internationalization, thus recognizing the utmost importance of science, in

general, and of social and humanistic sciences, in particular for the cultural development, where

research enjoys a high standard via a set of international good practices. Therefore, at our

institution, the quality of the research and the scientific publications complies with the National

Education Act 1/2011, the National Strategy of Research, Development and Innovation 2014-2020,

approved by Government Resolution 929/2014, National Plan of Research, Development and

Innovation for 2014-2020, Government Ordinance 57/2002 regarding the scientific research and the

technological development, Act 87/2006 for the approval of the Emergency Government Ordinance

75/2005 regarding the assurance of quality in education, Government Resolution 1418/11.10.2006

for the approval of the Methodology of external evaluation, of standards, of the reference standards

and of the list of performance indicators issued by ARACIS – “Official Gazette” no 865/2006, Act

8/1996 regarding the copyright and other related rights, Charter of Spiru Haret University (2011

edition), the Ethical Code of good practices in research of Spiru Haret University and the Quality

Management Handbook - 2011 edition (http://www.spiruharet.ro/asigurarea-calitatii.html).

As for the scientific publications, Spiru Haret University runs a regular quality evaluation that

covers, among others, the editorial policy, the frequency and the online visibility, the number of

citations and the like. Starting with 2011, the publications that have not met the indexation criteria in

international databases or have not been cited at a national level, have been assisted by the Central

Research Institute, so as to meet all the above requirements.

Nevertheless, USH scientific publications are evaluated from a quality perspective biannually,

and the results are made public. A special attention is paid to the ‘fight’ against plagiarism and the

publication conditions are rather strict. To this end, Safe Assign software has been implemented,

made available by Blackboard, which analyses all the scientific publications and any attempt of

intellectual fraud is being avoided.

CONCLUSIONS

Currently, at Spiru Haret University, there are a number of active 17 scientific publications

(APPENDIX 10). Of all these, 11 publications are in English (64.70%), and one features articles in

Romanian (5.88%), 3 are published in Romanian and English (17.64%), one in English and French

(5.88%) and one in English, French and German (5.88%). All publications are visible online and 13

have their own website (76.47%), 9 publications are indexed in landmark international databases

(52.94%) and a number of 5 publications are CNCS ranked in B+ (29.41%).

49

Moreover, 4 new titles of scientific publications in English language have been suggested:

- Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science, Bucharest- Scientific Journal of Computing and

Information Technology

- Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Bucharest- VETSCIENCE

- Faculty of Finance and Banking, Bucharest - JOURNAL OF ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL STUDIES, in

course of obtaining the ISSN and of developing the website and the online system for managing the

publication

- Faculty of International Relations, History and Philosophy, Bucharest - Romanian Journal of Global

Politics

COST projects in 2014

In 2014 (between 14 January 2010 and 13 January 2014), we conducted and completed an

internationally funded COST project - “Systemic Risks, Financial Crises and Credit-the roots, dynamics

and consequences of the Subprime Crisis”. The main goal of the research project was to provide a

comprehensive documentation and an analysis of the subprime crisis and of its consequences on

Europe.

The TA1201 COST project - Gender, Science, Technology and Environment – genderSTE,

52

(2012-2016) is in progress in 2014. The main goal of genderSTE was to promote a better integration

of gender dimension in the science and technology area at three main levels:

1. Promotion of women at work in the science and technology area by changing the structure of

the institutions (as recommended by the European Commission), by disseminating research and

practice

2. Promotion of a better integration of gender in the content of science, research and

technology, by disseminating the existing research on this topic, namely EU-US Gendered

X. STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF RESEARCH FUNDS

The Charter of Spiru Haret University mentions a special fund of one million of euros,

approved by the University Senate and meant to finance certain research projects of a great interest

for the university (Charter of USH, 2011 edition, p.18).

The funds attracted for the research mainly come from the following sources:

- national funds from public funds, made available via competition by CNCS, ANCS, European Social

Fund and the Romanian Government by means of the POSDRU, PODCA, etc strategies. At the

national level, private sources have been attracted to support the research that will benefit the

business environment;

- international funds, from public sources, mainly financing programs of research, as such:

Framework Program FP7, TEMPUS, COST-ESF (www.cost.esf.org, European Cooperation in Science

and Technology- European Science Foundation), ESF (http://ec.europa.eu/esf/home.jsp?langId=en,

European Social Fund), as well as other financing sources of the cross-border cooperation.

The information in the research contracts, financed from these sources, was gathered by

highlighting the total value of the contracts signed in RON and EUR, thus reporting these values to

the year when the signing of each contract took place. Every contract involves a time of

implementation, 3 years on average, and the reimbursement mechanism of the eligible expenses has

made necessary to have a separate information of the amounts to be collected annually from these

contracts, while examining the data recorded on the basis of two indicators (the total value of the

contracts signed and the amounts to be collected annually from research contracts).

In APPENDIX 11c, we find the total value of the contracts signed in 2014, on categories of

financing sources, while APPENDIX 12 shows the annual status of the amounts to be collected from

research projects, as in the balance sheet.

Should we examine the information in APPENDIX 11c, we notice that there is a number of 19

research contracts, signed with various sponsors, out of which 74% are nationally funded (POSDRU

structural funds), 10% benefit from national private funding, 11% are internationally funded (EU

framework programme), while 5% are nationally funded (at national level).

Figure 6: Structure of the projects according to the funding sources in 2014

56

The data covered in APPENDIX 12 reveal the following:

● The earnings derived from the research projects with partners in the business environment

was 55.235,35 RON in 2014, and the earnings from the research projects financed from the

state budget were 2903.23 RON.

● While examining the data about the annual earnings, based on the signed research contracts

(their evolution is presented in Figure 7) on years and types of financing sources, the

conclusion is that the private funds hold the highest percentage (95%) among the earnings

of the year 2014.

Figure 7: The evolution of the research contracts-derived annual earnings

Figure 8: Structure of the research contracts derived earnings in 2014 / funding sources

57

USH thinks necessary to also steer the research to its applicative side, with a clear purpose of

responding to the needs of the business environment and attract more funds from the private

environment, at least at a level of 25% in 2014. In order to reach this objective, research topics must

be defined, in a partnership with the business environment, which involves the solving of certain real

issues it is dealing with at present, still under the effects of the economic downturn.

In 2014, the highest number of contracts were signed; they were sponsored by the European

Social Fund and the Romanian Government (POSDRU type) - Figure 9.

Figure 9: The evolution of the total number of projects, won in POSDRU competitions

- dynamics of POSDRU funds attracted between 2012 and 2014:

Figure 10: The evolution of the total value of the contracts signed for conducting POSDRU type

projects (in lei)

58

In 2014, we have 2 completed projects with a national financing – structural funds: POSDRU,

projects registered in the previous years and 14 ongoing projects (APPENDIX 11l), in a total value of

73.161.123, 68 LEI (total eligible value), namely €16.258.027, 48; Exchange rate: €1 = 4.5 LEI.

The status of the projects filed in 2014 corresponds with the data available on the date of

drafting this report.

Scientific Research for 2014 – 2020 (APPENDIX 14) in compliance with the proposal concerning the

National Strategy of the Scientific Research for 2014 – 2020. The final version of the Strategy of

Scientific Research for 2014 – 2020 of Spiru Haret University will be adopted after the consultation

with the academia by a Lime Survey consisting of 14 questions for the USH teaching staff called

Survey on USH research strategy 2014 – 2020 proposal and the publication of the final version of the

National Strategy of the Scientific Research for 2014 – 2020. The strategy was addressed and

approved in the USH Senate meeting of 15 July 2014.

XIII. ANALYSIS OF THE RELATION BETWEEN RESEARCH AND BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT

AT SPIRU HARET UNIVERSITY

Spiru Haret University pays a great attention to the relation between the academic research

and the business environment, in line with the proposals of the European Commission for Culture

and Education, published on April 2, 2009, in the report called ‘A new partnership for the

modernization of universities: the EU Forum for University-Business dialogue’. Released after this

Forum, which brought together higher education institutions, businesses, professional associations

and public authorities, thus giving them the possibility of exchanging good practices and talk about

their joint issues, the report followed up on the direction set up by the European Boards in Lisbon

(March 2000) and in Barcelona (March 2002), at least for one strategic objective: until 2010, the

European Union has to become the most competitive and dynamic knowledge economy in the world,

to change the education and training systems of the EU into a world quality landmark and to build an

European space of research and innovation.

The importance of the relations between universities and business in Europe has been also

clearly underlined in the Commission statement: For the success of the modernization project in

universities: education, research and innovation. The statement has pointed out at the crucial role

that the universities play during the successful transition of Europe to a knowledge society and

economy. The idea is that this sector must be modernized and restructured in depth, to avoid having

Europe lose the world competition in terms of education, research and innovation.

62

Spiru Haret University knows and recognized the importance of the principles being stated on

this occasion: the need to remove the barriers around the European universities, providing a real

autonomy and raising the awareness of the universities, stimulation of the structured partnerships

with the business community, providing the appropriate combination of skills and competencies for

the labour market, lowering the financing gap and a higher efficiency of the financing in education

and research, strengthening the interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity, the activation of

knowledge by interacting with the society, awarding excellence at the highest levels, increasing the

attractivity degree in the European space for the higher education and the European Research Area.

Also, a careful examination of all the European documents about the academic research and business

relation21

, the USH management has retained the importance of the cooperation with the formal and

non-formal education institutions, as well as with the companies, in order to promote its various

activities and to convince the society, government and the private sector that USH deserves the so-

much needed investments, and that the companies can help the universities rewrite their curricula,

this contributing to the financing.

The strategy of the USH research is based on the desideratum formulated in the statement of

the Conference of the European ministries in charge with the higher education, April 28-29, 2009,

which requested from the public policies to ‘fully recognize the value of the different missions of

higher education, spreading from learning to research and to the service brought to the community,

via the involvement towards the social cohesion and cultural development’.

The higher education remains a public responsibility and, hence, it is important for the

universities to be financially supported by public-private partnerships, while guaranteeing them

autonomy and quality assurance systems. The education and professional formation, meant to lead

to the acquisition of the general and civic culture, represent excellent means to create employment

places and to promote competitiveness, fundamental elements of the cultural and intellectual

plurality, as well as of the civic life.

The research policy in USH supports the idea that the dialogue and cooperation between

companies and higher education institutions must remain one of the priorities in the near future,

besides the dialogue and cooperation with the other sectors of the society, so as all the interested

parties can benefit from the cultural, scientific and technical knowledge, derived and disseminated

by the higher education institutions.

21

The Commission Statement on April 2, 2009, called ‘A new partnership for the modernization of

universities: the EU Forum for University-Business dialogue’ - COM(2009)0158; The Statement of the

Commission on May 10, 2006, called „The program results of the modernization of the universities: education,

research, innovation” - COM(2006)0208; the conclusions formulated after the European Council in Lisbon, 23 -

24 of March, 2000; the conclusions formulated after the European Council on 13-14 March 2008, mainly

regarding the investments in people and the modernization of the labor markets; the conclusions formulated

after the European Council on 19-20 March 2009, mainly for the part regarding the full capitalization of the

renewed Strategy in Lisbon for economic growth and employment; The Resolution of the Council on November

15, 2007 regarding the new competencies for the recent employment places; the conclusions of the Council on

12 May 2009 regarding a strategic framework for the European cooperation in education and professional

formation (‘ET 2020’); The Resolution on 16 January 2008 called ‘The adult education: It is never too late to

study; Resolution on 23 September 2008 regarding the Bologna Process and the mobility of the students; The

Approval of the Regional Committees regarding the university-business dialogue on December 4, 2009 and the

Approval of the Economic and Social Committee on December 17, 2009; the study published by the European

Parliament, called ‘The further development of the university-business dialogue’, articles 165 and 166 in the

Treaty on the European Union functioning, article 48 in its Procedure Regulation and the Report of the

Commission for culture and education and the approval of the Commission for industry, research and energy

A7-0108/2010.

63

On the other hand, Spiru Haret University considers that the intellectual independence of the

higher education institutions related to the business environment has to be maintained. Plus, both

the interdiscplinary and transdisciplinary nature of the learning and research programs needs to be

consolidated, as well as the cooperation with other universities.

While retaining the necessity of close relations with the business environment, USH aims to

improve its performance level, by complying with the knowledge principle based on the ‘research-

education-innovation’, after the example of the knowledge and innovation communities (CCI) of the

European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), taking into account the social and economic

environment in the ongoing research and innovation programs. The benefits of such type of

dialogue, as well as the improved cooperation between the university and business, are pertinent in

terms of improving the dialogue and the cooperation among the university, national and

international institutions and the organizations of the civil society, and also the enhancement of the

interaction between university and society in general.

Spiru Haret University believes that a special attention has to be paid to the access of SMEs

to the academic education and research, both from increasing the public financing and by the

simplification of the bureaucracy.

Similarly, it supports the necessity of highlighting the importance and the stimulation of the

examination and research in the scientific and technological fields, but also social and human, where

valuable knowledge for the modern companies is provided. To this purpose, Spiru Haret University

supports the role of the small and medium research projects for the excellence networks based on

large integrated projects and invites the companies and universities to take verifiable measures.

Last, but not least, the stringency of the lifelong learning and of the numerous concepts

included, starting with primary and secondary and going to tertiary education, via the professional

formation and ending with a non-formal and formal education, so useful to the economic, social,

cultural and civic life, shows the need of comparing the life learning opportunities to the needs of the

people, vulnerable social groups and to the labour market.

From this perspective – the education and research policy – USH supports the lifelong

learning, the information and the formation, considering that the provision of certain essential skills

for the labour market needs to represent the requirement of the intellectual development and the

personal growth. Thus, within Spiru Haret University organizes programs of continuing professional

formation and development. The Faculty of Financial and Accounting Management in Bucharest has

an extremely attractive offer, with its five of such programs: The financial reporting to economic

entities and public institutions, The financial management of the European funded projects, The

Primary Accounting of the economic entities, The Accounting and the VAT fiscality and of the income

tax and Audit, Control and Accounting Expertise. To the same purpose, the Faculty of Marketing and

International Business provides ten postgraduate programs: Marketing applied to the fashion

industry, Tourism marketing and management, Marketing and management of the Customs

administration, Marketing and management of the logistic operations, Marketing and Management

of Services, Marketing and Management of the emergency situations, Marketing and Management of

the services in the Hospitality industry, Marketing of cruise tourism and recreation, Marketing and

Management in Public Administration, SAP Sales. Nevertheless, the ongoing requirements on the

labour market, triggered by the economic, social crisis and the employment require from any

university to expand its access to learning and modernize the curricula, thus meeting half way with

the recent challenges, with the purpose of improving the skills of the European labour force.

As a conclusion, for USH, the mobility will be a cornerstone of the higher education. The

mobility between the universities and the business environment constitute the key of a closer

cooperation between the two worlds, and the organization of postgraduate (master) programs

benefitting from an active participation from the companies, along with scholarships for students

64

and bonuses for researchers, is essential. To this purpose, Spiru Haret University considers opportune

and welcomes the launching of the sole European network of business and innovation, which

features the services provided by the Euro Info Centres (EIC) and the Innovation Relay Centres (IRC).

1. Vision and mission

In terms of research, Spiru Haret

University focuses on consolidating its position as a higher education and re-

search institution in order to join the advanced research universities.

Spiru Haret University aims at being ranked among the top universi-

ties in Romania, at enjoying national and international recognition, due to

the alignment to the European stan-dards in point of research and innova-

tion. A first step towards international recognition was taken in October

2013, when Spiru Haret University be-came the first Romanian University to

be granted the HR Excellence in Re-

search Award by DG Research and In-novation of the European Commission.

We focus on improving the qua-

lity in research - a field contributing to the intellectual development – a

prerequisite for boosting the institu-tion’s credibility, for making it com-

petitive at international and national levels and ensuring its long-term de-

velopment.

Since its establishment, Spiru

Haret University has assumed its edu-

cation and research mission.

The overall mission of the Univer-

sity, as a higher education institution – as set forth in the Spiru Haret Uni-

versity Charter – is to generate and disseminate knowledge to the society

through:

a) initial and continuing training at graduate and post-graduate levels

for personal development, the profe-ssional insertion of the beneficiaries of

the educational process and for pro-viding the social and economic envi-

ronment with qualified people;

b) research, development, inno-

vation and technology transfer through individual and collective crea-

tion in sciences, arts, letters, by per-formance and physical and sports de-

velopment and by capitalising and disseminating the outcomes.

The overall mission of Spiru Haret

University reflects the key role of re-search. On this background, the re-

search mission is elaborated, in line with the overall mission of the Univer-

sity.

The research mission results in

the development of research within Spiru Haret University, integrated with

the educational process. It must meet the innovation objectives required by

the knowledge economy and covers the academia, students and Master

candidates’ full commitment to attain performance in research.

Research strategy for 2014-2020

211

2. Substantiation

In designing, elaborating and

implementing the quality strategy, we have in view the current objective re-

ality, according to which ensuring quality, efficiency, performance and

competitiveness is one of the funda-mental guidelines for all types of so-

cial organisations, including the edu-cational and research institutions.

Activity report of Central Research Institute for

2014

ICCS Activity Report

225

The Central Research Institute (ICCS) is a research organism within Spiru Haret University

(USH) of Bucharest, in compliance with the USH Senate decision on April 14, 2009.

The organisation and functioning of the Central Research Institute is based on the following

legislative acts:

- National Education Act no. 1/2011;

- USH Charter;

- USH Research Strategy;

- Regulations regarding the organization, development and financing of the research at USH;

- Government decree no. 57/2002 regarding the research and technological development;

The Charter of Spiru Haret University, 2011 edition, makes a reference to the CENTRAL

RESEARCH INSTITUTE under Title II, section 4, art 21, par (1) and (2), The organizational structure of

USH and defines it as a structure providing the scientific and methodological coordination of the

research centres of the University;

The objectives of the Central Research Institute are:

● Enhancing the multi-disciplinary academic research (inter- and intra-disciplinary);

● Facilitating the requirements of the university to participate in research programmes and

networks, nationally and internationally;

● Providing specific services to different beneficiaries;

● Improving the university’s publications exposure by including them in international

databases;

● Providing consistent financial sources;

● Improving the scientific performance of the teaching and research personnel of the

university, nationally and internationally;

● Educating the students, master and PhD candidates to pursue the best academic

performance and competitiveness;

● Encouraging in finding the solutions to the current issues through public/ private

partnerships.

In 2014, the Central Research Institute proposed a series of activities meant to enhance the

research activity visibility within Spiru Haret University and to continue the process of integration of

the research into the European Research area. An important step in this direction was made in

November 2011 by the accession to the European Charter for Researchers and to the Code of

Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers.

226

As a consequence of this accession, in 2012, thanks to the actions of the Central Research

Institute, USH was accepted in Work Group 4 for drafting the Human Resources Strategy for

Researchers. Thus, Spiru Haret University has the possibility to directly get involved into the

substantiation of the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers at European level

http://ec.europa.eu/euraxess/index.cfm/rights/charterAndCode#R.

In 2014, the USH team attended the third Mutual Learning Seminar, hosted by Rovira i Virgili

University (URV), Tarragona, Spain, between 2 and 3 of October 2014. The event was coordinated by

DG Research & Innovation – the European Commission in Tarragona. The topic of the seminar was to

describe the process of drafting the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers at an institutional

level.

Similarly, USH was present at the ‘Sharing experience to better implement the HRS4R’ seminar

on October 20, 2014, organized in Brussels. It is worthy to mention that the main intervenients were

selected via a competition and Romania was represented by Spiru Haret University, one of the six

winners, invited to share their experience in the strategy development. The European exposure of

the event has added an image value to our institution.

Spiru Haret University was the only university in Romania whose candidacy was accepted for

the Working Group no. 4 of the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers, thus having the

opportunity to have a direct involvement in the substantiation of the Strategy of Human Resources in

Research at European level.

Since October 2013, our University has held the ‘Human Resources Excellence in Research’

logo, awarded by DG Research & Innovation, European Commission, which is a recognition of the

ability of USH to implement the principles of the European Charter of Researchers, as well as of the

stipulations in the Code of Conduct for Recruitment of Researchers.

In 2014, the Central Research Institute provided the necessary national and international

visibility on the website http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro/ as well as on http://www.spiruharet.ro/ for

the actions undertaken to obtain the ‘Human Resources Excellence in Research’ logo. Likewise, the

target of that year was to achieve the objectives assumed via the Human Resources Strategy for

Researchers of Spiru Haret University, as such:

Chapter I Professional and ethical aspects

1. Freedom of research – a working group was created, aiming to define the limitations of the

researchers and to identify their solutions, followed by compiling a report that will include

their assessment and also the impact of such constraints in the research activity.

2. Professional attitude – the Ledger of Projects (online) was opened and updated in real time,

as a follow-up to the appropriate functioning of the interdepartmental group (ICCS, Human

Resources, Accounting), created to best implement the projects.

227

3. Legal and contract obligations – a section on the research web page1 was opened, meant for

the financing opportunities for the researchers; the research projects regarding the fulfilling

the legal and contract obligations are monitored.

Chapter II Recruitment

According to the Code of Conduct for Recruitment of Researchers, Spiru Haret University

opened an account on Euraxess Jobs portal in 2014 and started publishing the vacant openings, in

order to increase transparency of the recruitment process of the researchers.

Chapter III – Labor conditions and social security

Higher mobility

Spiru Haret University, via its Department of Erasmus Community Programmes, has taken all

the required measures to develop its mobility programme ERASMUS, both for academia and

students.

The right to use the ‘Human Resources Excellence in Research’ logo on all the University’s

promotional materials will bring added value both internally and externally, for the researchers and

also for the institutions financing the research.

The Central Research Institute promoted the actions undertaken to obtain the ‘Human

Resources Excellence in Research’ logo on its own web page, http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro/ as well

as in materials published in the Opinia Naţională weekly and at the Restart Romania TV show, TVH

channel.

Spiru Haret University committed itself to implementing the Human Resources Strategy for

Researchers, the measures and actions described in the strategy to improve the research

environment, to better answer the needs of the researchers at Spiru Haret University, to attract high-

1 http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro

228

level researchers in the country and abroad. The implementation of these measures and actions will

be carefully monitored, a self-evaluation report being planned for elaboration after two years,

preceded by an intermediary self-evaluation report after 1 year (November - December 2014). Spiru

Haret University’s progress in achieving the objectives of the Human Resources Strategy for

Researchers will be externally evaluated after 4 years.

The Central Research Institute has centralized the research activity in Spiru Haret

University, using the semester and annual reports of the research departments and centres.

Following the analysis of these reports and examination of the clarifications provided by the

Faculties/Department, the Report on research at USH was drafted; the report will be compiled per

each semester and year.

Events organized by ICCS

During 2014, the Central Research Institute coordinated a series of national and international

scientific events, in compliance with the ICCS Activity Plan, and it was also a partner in scientific

events organized by USH research centres.

- On February 19, 2014, ICCS organized in 13 Ion Ghica Street, district 3, the workshop on

Presentation of the research management for Elsevier Pure Current Research and

Information System (CRIS), a flexible system of managing information on research, which

allows planning, evaluation and reporting of the research activities.

- On April 7, 10 am, at the Senate Hall, the Central Research Institute coordinated, along with

the American Embassy, the presentation Instruments of promoting the female

entrepreneurship. The lecturer was SAMIRA COOK, Vice-president for Entrepreneurial

Development of the National Community Reinvestment Coalition Washington D.C. Students

and researchers from USH were invited to attend.

Mrs. Cook also held the position of Director for the Business Centre for Women in

Washington D.C. This institution assists the female entrepreneurs with training courses,

individual consultations, mentoring, as well as with the development of the business sector

by the opportunities of public and export acquisitions. Under her management, the Business

Centre for Women in Washington D.C. has helped over 1,000 women in reaching their

business objectives.

The services provided by the National Community Reinvestment Coalition supports small

businesses by assisting them when start-ups, to draft the development strategy of that

business, capital access, space for business incubation, special consultancy, training seminars

and sessions, networking events.

The cultural attaché, Mrs. Marjorie Stern, and Mrs. Isabella Alexandrescu, coordinator of

cultural programmes, were invited to attend from the US Embassy.

In recognition for her activity with small businesses, Mrs. Samira Cook was nominated as the

Champion of Change to the White House in the field of entrepreneurship mentoring.

229

- On February 26, 2014, 10:30 am, ICCS organized in 13 Ion Ghica Street, district 3, Studio Hall,

the workshop Presentation of the SCOPUS database – metrics and research analysis. The

lecturer was Mrs. Cristina Huidiu, Freelance Trainer Elsevier B.V. in Romania. In attendance

there were researchers, librarians, students at USH. The topics to be discussed were:

• Metrics (impact factor, Hirsch index, altmetrics) – the importance of the faceted analysis

of the scientific activity

• The analysis of the research activity of an author

• The impact and the scientific output of the academic institutions

• The analysis of the journals and their international impact

• Functionalities and automated references

• Where do I get published?

For the same year, the Central Research Institute was the co-organizer of:

Administration), 24-25 October at the Faculty of Marketing and International Business and Faculty of

Finance and Banking, Bucharest, http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro/ocs/index.php/icesba2014

• International Conference Partages genrés de l’espace / Gendered Division of Space, by the

Faculty of Letters between 5 and 6 of June, at the main headquarters of USH. The Conference was

organized within the Partages genrés de l’espace project, in partnership with the University of

Palermo, Italy and University of Elbasan, Albany. This project was financed by AUF. The Director of

this project is Assoc. Prof. PhD Mihaela Chapelan.

In 2014, Spiru Haret University, via the Central Research Institute, in partnership with SIVECO

Romania S.A., won the POSDRU 156/1.2/G/141179 project, called Harmonizing the curriculum and

the educational package with the labor market requirements, http://adapt2jobs.ro/. The project,

with a duration of 18 months, is the recipient of co-funding from the European Social Fund through

the Sectoral Operational Programme for the Human Resources Development 2007 – 2013, the

Priority axis 1 ‚ Education and professional training in support to the economic optimization and

knowledge society development’’, the major intervention field 1.2 ‚Quality in higher education’.

230

The project aims both undergraduate students – 210 – enrolled in the study programmes of

economic sciences, social sciences, arts and architecture within USH, and personnel involved in the

development of the academic study programmes (7 people), in the development and management

of the qualifications at the University level (7 people) and 6 members of the management

commissions/structures at Spiru Haret University.

The general goal is to increase the quality of the educational offer in higher education and to

harmonize it with the ever-changing requirements on the labor market by adjusting and improving

the bachelor study programmes, facilitating access to higher education and expanding the learning

opportunities for the students via software solutions implemented in the teaching-learning process.

The specific goals of this project are:

• optimization of the bachelor programmes by developing an innovating educational 7-course

package, in a digital format, for the fields of: economic sciences, social sciences, arts and

architecture.

• digitization of those 7 courses as digital course books will be developed so that they will assist

in the teaching process. The digital course books will comprise virtual book pages that can be

accessed on multiple devices, such as tablets, telephone, PC. These pages include multimedia

applications for learning. Their suggestions stand out for a way of learning that involves the

understanding and explanation of the content and also a mechanism of building the critical thinking.

• flexibilization of the learning opportunities by using the harmonized curriculum and the

developed educational package, in order to promote the innovation within the educational processes

and facilitating access to interactive resources.

• informing the public and promoting the project via specific means: conferences, media

articles/news, written or online, for the dissemination of information regarding the project and its

results.

The Central Research Institute provides the access of the researchers and students at Spiru

Haret University to the JSTOR and LEGALIS scientific databases, as well as to the databases acquired

via ANELIS PLUS project: EBSCO ACADEMIC SEARCH COMPLETE, THOMSON REUTERS, PROQUEST

and SCOPUS. Moreover, in 2014, the students and researchers at USH can access the Passport

Euromonitor database, acquired via POSDRU project above. An opinion survey among the users of

the USH libraries has been a constant project, aiming to examine the services being offered, namely

the access to scientific databases, of which 65% of the users consider as being very important.

The Central Research Institute has provided counselling to the researchers at Spiru Haret

University with the aim to:

● Improve the scientific publications, in order to have them indexed in international

scientific databases;

231

● Improve the scientific research centres activity;

● Improve the visibility of the research centres and scientific publications by providing

assistance in creating websites for the research centres and scientific publications, which

do not have an appropriate online visibility.

Also, the Central Research Institute has offered counselling so as to:

● Ensure the access of Spiru Haret University’s researchers to projects with national and/or

European financing;

● Conclude partnerships in the field of research;

● Organise national and international scientific events

The Central Research Institute ensures the visibility of its researchers’ work on the

cercetare.spiruharet.ro portal, which divides research into five research fields:

● Science

● Social Sciences

● Economics

● Art and Architecture

● Humanities

On the http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro portal, the research centres, the scientific publications,

events and projects corresponding to each field, can be distinctly identified.

The information posted on the research portal is permanently updated. A new element is the

introduction of the: ,EU financing opportunities for research”, ,,National financing opportunities” and

,Mobilities - research internships” columns, to allow a better visibility of the academic community in

USH.

The Central Research Institute provides the electronic registration, by the Ledger of Projects

(RUP), ab.spiruharet.ro, the registration of all the projects initiated or pending within the University’s

research community, according to the information provided by the project managers. In 2014,

additional information was requested from the initiators and/ or project managers regarding the

evolution phase, as well as the corresponding documentation.

The Central Research Institute is editing the Journal of Economic Development, Environment

and People publication, (ISSN 2285-3642) http://jedep.spiruharet.ro/Abouthtml.html, an online

trimestral publication, where the researchers within the Alliance of Central and Eastern Europe

Universities (ACEU) are invited to publish articles http://www.aceu-edu.org/

232

The publication is indexed in ProQuest, RePec, UlrichsWEB Global Serial Directory, Gale

Directory.

Journal of Economic Development, Environment and People is an international, open-access

type publication, promoting research and information exchange.

Journal of Economic Development, Environment and People encourages submitting research

articles in the economic development, environmental and social sciences fields.

The articles submitted for publication can cover new approaches and opinions in the research

activity. Each issue deals with a specific topic that comes from the main research fields in this

publication. At the end of 2014, the final issue was 11 (4/2014). The language of the articles is

English.http://www.aceu-edu.org/. The articles can be electronically uploaded on the publication

webpage, http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro/ojs/index.php/jedep/user/register.

SWOT ANALYSIS

Strengths

● Modification of the USH Charter. In the 2011 edition at Title II USH Organisational Structure,

section 4, art. 21 par. (1) and (2) the USH Charter refers to the CENTRAL RESEARCH

INSTITUTE as structure enabling the scientific and methodological coordination of the

research centres in the University;

● The existence of the http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro/index.php platform, as means of

aggregation of the information regarding the research at Spiru Haret University for the five

research areas, under the coordination of the Central Research Institute.

● The accession to the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the

Recruitment of Researchers as well as the quality of member in the Work Group 4 for the

elaboration of the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers, participating, on October,

29, 2012, in the first meeting in Brussels.

● Receipt of the “Human Resources Excellence in Research” logo from the European

Commission, General Directorate for Research, which identifies the institutions and

organisations as providers and supporters of a work environment favourable for research.

The right to use the " Human Resources Excellence in Research" logo on all the University’s

promotional materials adds value both internally and externally, both for researchers, as well

as for the institutions financing research.

● The existence of an individual account for the income and expenditure resulted from the

research activity, account managed by the Central Research Institute.

233

Weaknesses

● The lack of a space appropriate for the research activity and management

● Personnel with insufficient research workload

● The lack of interest of the heads of research within the faculties/ departments and of the

heads of the research centres in providing complete, correct information, in due time, on

the research activities within the faculties/departments/research centres, in order to

integrate them onto the research portal, cercetare.spiruharet.ro, with the aim to increase

visibility and prestige of the research activity of Spiru Haret’ s researchers

● Effort fragmentation – there are 24 research centres, some of which have poor activity;

Opportunities

● Attracting national and European funds for the research projects of the USH researchers

● The accession to the European research Framework

● Eligibility in national and international partnership projects

● Participation in national and international scientific events

Threats

● Research under-financing - budget deficit for research in the last 20 years, at a national level

As a conclusion, the activity of the Central Research Institute in 2014 contributed to the

improvement in the research activity within Spiru Haret University, to the promotion of the research

findings both nationally and internationally, by means of the scientific events and the activity of

dissemination of information in the online format, via the http://cercetare.spiruharet.ro/index.php,

to providing access of the researchers of scientific databases, to the identification of suitable

financing sources for their projects, as well as to the positioning of Spiru Haret University in the

European research framework by acceding to the European Charter for Researchers and to the Code

of Conduct for the Recruitment of Reseachers, and to obtaining the ‘Human Resources Excellence in

Research’ logo from the European Commission, thus laying the ground for the institutional

accreditation of research, in compliance with the latest stipulations in the GR 1062/2011.
