The mission of the Faculty of Finance and Banking
Given that the financial market is constantly the subject of changes and increasingly more countless pressures, the academic training in this field has to prove the same dynamics, in order to make sure that our graduates will successfully face the challenges imposed on by the practical activity. Public finance, banking, capital markets and insurance fields claim specialists with a thorough knowledge and understanding, which can be provided by graduating the Bachelor’s program of the Faculty of Finance and Banking. Our strong belief is that our graduates will successfully integrate in the labor market and will adapt to the ongoing developments of the financial and economic environment.

The Bachelor’s program of the Faculty of Finance and Banking is organized distinctly, in order to provide the same curriculum with Romanian and respectively English teaching. It is concerned to provide excellent standards for teaching, so that future economists with a Finance and Banking specialization will benefit, at the end of the three years study, from a fast integration into the economic life (nationally or abroad) and would ensure a good opportunity for further academic studies through the other two programs (master’s and PhD).
The curriculum of the Faculty of Finance and Banking and the syllabus of each discipline are continuously updated, for a better transposition of the theoretical, qualitative and quantitative issues into the practical reality. The main goal is that, at the end of the undergraduate program, the graduates will be able to meet the requirements of economic and financial environment through the acquired skills.
