By means of this methodology, the academic teaching positions obtained in an accredited foreign higher education institution are automatically recognized by the "Nicolae Titulescu" University of Bucharest. The methodology applies to Romanian citizens, citizens from the member states of the European Union, the European Economic Area, the Swiss Confederation, as well as to third-country nationals who have obtained academic teaching positions in accredited higher education institutions located in member countries of the European Union, the European Economic Area, the Swiss Confederation or in prestigious universities from other countries included in the ‘list of foreign prestigious universities,’ approved by OMECTS (Order of the Romanian Minister for Education) no. 5825/2016 and regularly updated, in case they would like to settle in Romania. Only for non-tenure track positions, the provisions of Act no. 200/2014 and article 296 of the Education Act no. 1/2011 are directly applicable: "(1) Reserved academic teaching positions, which are vacant or temporarily vacant, are primarily covered by the respective institution’s tenured academic staff or by adjunct academic staff, by hourly payment, under this Act. (2) Hiring specialists who are scientifically recognized in their field through their inventions, innovations, prizes, scientific publications in their country or abroad, as visiting professors or associated professors is endorsed by the council of the department and approved by the faculty council." Occupying a teaching position in the Romanian higher education system is done according to Romanian regulations in force.
