International Students – Admissions
The Faculty of Aerospace Engineering offers programs of studies for international students at three levels: undergraduate (bachelor), master, and doctoral. Most undergraduate and master programs are in Romanian. The access to these requires the study of a preparatory year for international students to learn Romanian.
