The position of cadastre in the academic curricula of the geodetic academic specialization in Romania

Radulescu, Gheorghe M.T. et al.

This paper continues the series of materials regarding geodetic education in Romania presented at previous FIG conferences (Accra 2006, Munich 2006, HK 2007, Sydney 2010, Marrakech 2011) this time addressing the analysis of the role of cadastre in the training of geodetic specialists in Romania. The paper makes an initial overview of the activity of cadastre in Romania, the current state of land records, elements on the computerization of this activity, particularities of the cadastre in Transylvania, and the organization of activity, nationally and regionally. The paper points out that, at present, cadastre holds a much higher position in the Science of land measurement in Romania than it should, but not because it is believed it must be so, but for the simple reason that the request for works in other areas: general and engineering topography, geodesy, cartography, photogrammetry, etc. is very low. The authors consider that this is temporary situation, amid the global crisis, and that the share of cadastre in the academic curricula in the field of Geodesy should be maintained within a normal balance with the other subjects studied. This paper presents the share of the subject in the curriculum of the specialization of Land Measurements and Cadastre of the North University in Baia Mare, the structure of the subject, the didactic methods used in teaching, the syllabus, the connection with other subjects, the structuring of the teaching on semesters, and the forms of verification. It is stresses that, in accordance with the latest provisions of the Ministry of Education in Romania, only the teachers who have graduated from a university in the field and have a PhD are allowed to teach or hold laboratory classes.
