The course of the recognition process / Working procedure
From the university's registrar, the file is transmitted to the Vice-Rector responsible for academic management. At the proposal of the Vice-Rector responsible for academic management, the Board of Administration (BA) endorses and the Senate approves the composition of the Commission for the recognition of titles/academic positions obtained in accredited foreign university institutions, made up of the Vice-Rector responsible for academic management, as President, two members, academic staff with the title of professor or associate professor (one representative designated by the Doctoral Studies Council and the Director of the Quality Assurance Department are recommended), and a secretary. The secretary of the commission will be a legal advisor of the university who will check and validate the file from the perspective of the legality of the submitted documents. When the recognition commission is constituted, at the proposal of the Vice-Rector responsible for academic management, an Appeals Commission will also be constituted, made up of three members, academic staff with the title of professor and two alternate members for both commissions. The Appeals Commission and the alternate members will be endorsed/approved together with the recognition commission. The recognition commission will prepare the Report regarding the acceptance/non-acceptance of the request, in which the result of the evaluation is justified. The deadline for analyzing and evaluating the file is 30 days from the issuance of the appointment decision for the above-mentioned commissions, not including the appeals period and their resolution. The University of Oradea, as a public law higher education institution, according to legal norms, based on the Report submitted by the recognition commission, endorses in the meeting of the board of administration and the senate approves the final solution regarding the recognition/non-recognition of the academic position.

The decision for recognition or non-recognition is issued, following the pronouncement of the final solution, by the Rector of the University of Oradea.
