State-funded places without tuition fees and a monthly doctoral scholarship.

The general admission average is calculated as the arithmetic mean, expressed with two decimal places and without rounding, of the grades obtained in the two components of the specialized examination.

In the event that multiple candidates obtain the same general average, ranking for state-funded places is determined based on the following criteria, in order:
  1. The average obtained at the Master’s dissertation examination.
  2. The overall average of the Master’s years of study.
  3. The average obtained at the Bachelor’s degree examination.

  1. Foreign language test: eliminatory (Pass/Fail).
  2. Specialized examination: consists of an oral examination before the committee, including presentation of research interests and assessment of theoretical knowledge.

The minimum general admission average is 8.00.

Registration is conducted 100% online via admitereonline.utcb.ro. Please consult the guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-HzCuDLCoY.

Ranking is carried out after formal entry into the competition (i.e., eligibility and submission of the required original diplomas), based on the selected field of study and the admission average.

Following ranking, your status may become “Admitted” or “Rejected,” depending on the applicable regulations and the availability of places. The examination ID remains unchanged throughout the entire process.

The next stage is enrolment, immediately following the competition (in accordance with the calendar). During this stage, original documents must be submitted and the required payments must be made (e.g., the enrolment fee of RON 150 and, where applicable, the first instalment of the tuition fee for tuition-based places), as specified in the published instructions.

Files are reviewed by the admission committees or sub-committees, which validate the submitted documents and the accuracy of the provided information.

For English (examples): Cambridge PET/FCE/CAE/CPE, IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC, Pearson PTE, Trinity ISE, ECL, as well as a B2-level certificate obtained at the baccalaureate examination or certificates issued by bilingual high school programmes (in accordance with the regulation).
For French: DELF/DALF, TCF, TEF, TFI, as well as a B2-level certificate obtained at the baccalaureate examination or certificates issued by bilingual high school programmes (in accordance with the regulation).

This page is addressed to candidates who wish to pursue Doctoral University Studies (SUD) within IOSUD – the Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest, for the 2026–2027 academic year.
