5 INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS AT THE UNIVERSITATEA BABE S-BOLYAI loan-AureL POP Universitatea Babe§-Bolyai, Romania Our University is a dynamic.but also tradit ional institution, wi th deep roots in Central Europe and strong international academicties. Its origins date backto 1581,which makes i t t he oldest institution of higher education in Romania. It was named after two prominent Transylvanian scientists - the Romanian biologist Victor Babes, and the Hungarian mathematician Janos Bolyai. Located in Transylvania, a European province wi th a complex history, Universitatea Babe§-Bolyai is the crowning achievement of a long series of attempts to establish here a higher education institution.Thus, the University's international recognition is manifested in different forms of collaboration and jo int scientific programmes wi th other well-renowned universities from a l l around the world. It is the largest Romanian university (approximately 45,000 students and 1,700 faculty staff), situated at the confluence of the Eastern and Western cultures. As an academic public institution, its aim is to promote and sustain the development of specific cultural components with in the local, regional, national and international community. Situated in a geographical area characterised by the presence of diverse ethnic and religious groups, the University benefits from a mult icultural and mult i l ingual environment that gives it its unique character and it offers complete studies in Romanian, Hungarian and German. The mult i l ingual and mult icultural profile of Universitatea Babe§-Bolyai, developed in compliance wi th the 1995 Universitatea Babe§-Bolyai Charter, has brought considerable advantages to every historical community of Transylvania - Romanians, Hungarians, Germans, Jews, and others -, reflecting not just the demographic structure of population, but also its historical heritage. At this main Transylvanian university, around 31,188 Romanians are studying (251 fields of study at undergraduate level and 225 master programmes; 24,414 undergraduate students, and 6,774 graduate students); 21 Faculties (of 21) provide training in Romanian at this university. Numerous Hungarians study in their mother tongue (72 fields of study at undergraduate level, and 31 master programmes; 4,780 undergraduate students and 783 graduate students, plus 2,831 Hungarian students who have chosen to study in other languages). 16 Faculties provide training in Hungarian as wel l . Study opportunities in German language are also widely spread (14 fields of study at undergraduate level, and 6 master programmes, more than 539 undergraduate students, and 182 graduate students). 8 Faculties provide training in German language. Never before have the history,the culture.and the language of the Hebrew people been studied so systematically and comprehensively (1 field of study at undergraduate level and 1 master programme, wi th almost 16 undergraduate and 5 graduate students). Other ethnic communities enjoy similar opportunities to promote their language and cultural identity. The university currently has 1,800 doctoral students, while enrolment for graduate studies has reached an annual figure over 4,000. In addition, the University lays considerable emphasis on foreign language skills and on educational programmes in widely spoken languages; therefore it provides a wide range of internationally competitive BA, MA and Ph.D. programmes in English, French and Italian. Also, 86 in order to al low a l l students to study at least one foreign language, the University provides Language centres and various foreign cultural centres. Having the role of mediator at local level between Romania and various world countries, the foreign cultural centres contribute to achieving a mutual awareness of different cultural traditions through their activities made available to the general public. There are several cultural centres carrying out their activities at our university to support the learning and understanding of our students, and other members of the University and Local community.. For example, we have contributed to the inauguration of: the Brazilian Cultural Centre (2011),the Russian Cultural Centre (2011),the Confucius Institute (2009),the Korean Cultural Centre (2007), and the Polish Cultural Centre (2003). Furthermore, there are other cultural centres carrying out their activities on the premises of our university and wi th our support: the Italian Cultural Centre, the French Cultural Centre, the German Cultural Centre and the British Council. The university also has a number of institutes, such as: the Institute of Ecclesiastical History, which promotes and stimulates research in the field of ecclesiastical history in a variety of areas s (organisation, religious life, confessional schools, personalities, relations between the State and the Church, etc.) referring to a l l historical religions in Romania and in Central and Eastern Europe. There is also the Cultural Institute of Cluj in Europe, which employs the strategy of highlighting, at the European level, the main cultural and mult i l ingual accomplishments -past and present - of the city of Cluj-Napoca. The Institute of Romanian as a European Language is an institution whose mission is to promote education and research projects, to maintain and further develop theory and practice (in the field of Romanian language as a foreign language, as a mother tongue language and as a non-mother tongue language) and to strengthen partnerships wi th other institutions. The Institute of Turkish and Central Asian Studies (ITCAS) is the first of its kind in Romania, and is meant to familiarise scholars and the public wi th the values of the Turkish history, culture and civilisation, back to its roots in Orient and Central Asia, but also providing polit ical and economic projections concerning the evolution of these regions. The understanding of the history, culture and civilisation of the Turkish, Orient and Central Asian world envisages the identification of the contribution of this area to the progress of humankind. The University's assets comprise modern buildings, equipped wi th laboratories at high technical standards, libraries, sports and leisure facilities. Each faculty, cultural centre and research institute has its own library, a l l being coordinated by the Central Library. We also provide high quality support services, 15 dormitories (with a tota l capacity of 5,000 places), eating establishments (2 restaurants and 4 cafeterias), museums (Academic Museum, Mineralogical Museum, Zoological Museum, University Memorial Park, and Museum of Paleontology and Stratigraphy), cultural centres, language centres and other facilities, such as the Botanical Garden, and the Sports Park. Our students benefit from outstanding educational and research opportunities under the guidance of well-prepared academic staff. Research has continuously and thoroughly been promoted throughout our University's existence, and therefore laboratories and CASE STUDIES 87 research centres of internationally scientific relevance have been created. In this respect, the Universitatea Babe§-Bolyai has made significant investments in the research area, in order to increase its performance and international visibility. Cluj-Napoca is genuinely a university city animated by a vivid and colourful cultural life and entertainment possibilities. It provides both students and its long-life standing residents various museums (History,Art, Ethnography, Pharmacy, Linguistics, Romanian National Opera House and Hungarian Opera House, Puppet Theatre), leisure parks, movie theatres and movie complexes, commercial and shopping centres. Annually, our city hosts national and international f i lm festivals (Transylvania Film Festival, Night of Ad Eaters) and various music festivals (Musical Autumn in Cluj), thus uniting people from different parts of the world in one multi-ethnic and mult icultural gathering. While belonging to the European Union area, the educational costs for studying at UBB are substantially lower than in most parts of the EU.The average tuit ion fee per 10 months at our University is around $3,200 - $3,400, covering a l l needs, for students from non-EU Member States.
