This new method comes with the purpose of organisational supply chain management performance growth, by improving the entire supply chain system and engineering process, and bringing contribution to the specialty literature in this field. The research methodology is based on qualitative research. The bibliographic research from various secondary sources is used, such as diverse books, scientific articles, reports and information material. In order to achieve a high performance in an organisation it is necessary to monitor and control the procurement process. Certain gaps have been identified in identifying a supplier rating and selection system based on both logistical, financial, price or quality aspects. As an own contribution, this paper proposes a criterial model of evaluating and selecting suppliers, based on specific aspects related to the product, services, delivery and to the financial situation. The motivation of choosing this model is found in its capacity of noticing the negative aspects regarding the relationship between an organisation and its suppliers and finding out the improvement aspects, with a high impact on the engineering process’ and supply chain management’s improvement. The model offers the possibility to benchmark the suppliers, aspect which favours the potential collaboration with future suppliers.","PeriodicalId":221827,"journal":{"name":"Balkan Region Conference on Engineering and Business Education","volume":"128 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127238221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, for most European universities, it is a rather new phenomenon. The purpose of the work is to analyse scientific literature on European higher education programmes for international students and to outline a theoretical framework of European higher education programmes for international students underpinning elaboration of new research question on master programmes for international engineering students. The research methodology comprises the study of the meaning of the key concepts of “framework”, “theoretical framework” and “international students”. Moreover, the logical chain of analysis is shown: theoretical framework → empirical study within a multicultural environment → conclusions. The case study research is applied. The empirical study was carried out at Hochschule Wismar, Germany in March 2017. Semi-structured interview served as the basis for data collection. The empirical findings allow complementing the elaborated theoretical framework consisting of the concepts on reasons for, language and impact of Masetr programme for international students with such a concept as European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). Directions of further research are proposed. The novel contribution of the paper is the newly formulated research question on master programmes for international students.","PeriodicalId":221827,"journal":{"name":"Balkan Region Conference on Engineering and Business Education","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129480313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this latter approach, the emphasis is on student rather than on teacher, as it is in the case of traditional higher education. The applied research was conducted at the Satu-Mare Branch of the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca through the project “Specialists for Satu-Mare” and the survey was used as method and the questionnaire as tool. The information gathered through the questionnaires distributed to both parties involved: students and teachers were analyzed. The aim of the research is to identify possible malfunctions and to propose recommendations for improving interactions in the educational process. The most important findings are: the need for the learning process to transfer especially practical knowledge and the promotion of “Professor Bologna's portrait” among teachers obtained as a result of applied research.","PeriodicalId":221827,"journal":{"name":"Balkan Region Conference on Engineering and Business Education","volume":"411 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123049302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to discover the most important training factors which contribute to the acquisition of teacher competences and to establish the implications for teacher education. We have used a mixed-method design as the procedure for collecting, analyzing, and combining both quantitative and qualitative data. To detect the main agents in the teacher competences’ achievement, we applied a questionnaire and we asked the personal opinion of the teachers regarding their evolution in the career. The findings indicated that the principal factor was the individual study, followed by the continuing professional development, through training courses, the collaborative learning, and, almost on the last place, the initial teacher education. Implications for teacher education: the changes in the future are incalculable, so we have to rethink the teacher education to ensure future teachers able to learn and adapt themselves to different conditions. We appreciate the recommendations to reform teacher education in the context of lifelong learning very useful (Dolan, 2012) and we will study the applicability of them in our university.","PeriodicalId":221827,"journal":{"name":"Balkan Region Conference on Engineering and Business Education","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125272343","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On one hand, the universities can provide new perspectives and know-how which can be further translated into exquisite products and services for companies. On the other hand, the business environment can raise practical problems and challenges for academia, providing in the same time material support for finding solutions to these problems. This paper presents a successful partnership between business and academia materialized in the development of a robotized semiautomatic motorcycle transmission. Since the solutions existing on the market did not meet the specific requirements of our industrial partner, we were asked to design an innovative and cost effective clutch and gearbox mechanism. The paper presents all the stages passed from establishing specific objectives and tasks for each member of the project’s team, the specific steps followed in order to develop the clutch operation mechanism and the gear mechanism, the obstacles and failures encountered during the design process and the testing procedures, the optimizations implemented, up to the final solution. The advantages of such industry-academia projects are discussed and possible obstacles that can hinder this kind of collaboration are addressed.","PeriodicalId":221827,"journal":{"name":"Balkan Region Conference on Engineering and Business Education","volume":"1679 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125536193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The workforce offer and demand is not sufficient to make progress but we need a concept that bring together skills, competency, jobs and productivity that drive economic growth. From the perspective of this paper, we deal with job mismatch as a qualitative imbalance that occurs when the characteristics of workers (level of education, qualification, skills) are not in direct relation with the work requirements, with accent on education requirements. I present some analytical highlights on education-job mismatch at European level and in Romania. Education requirements of jobs vary across countries. In Romania, almost 60% of adult employees, consider medium level of qualification is sufficient to do the job. Remarcable is that the procent is the highest amoung all responders from European countries. The subject have great importance to improve the matching as equilibrium between educational offer for developing skills, competences, knowledge with occupational requirements coming from changing business environment.","PeriodicalId":221827,"journal":{"name":"Balkan Region Conference on Engineering and Business Education","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127675428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, formal curricula in schools is legally binding document for ensuring its contribution to agreed competencies, skills, attitudes and values. Therefore, the classical manuals are more cheap and easy to be implemented in the class. However, curricula are not excluding the development of activities in the class in the same curricula in Romania as in many other countries. The purpose of this article is to evaluate knowledge generation based on experiential learning. As a methodology specific lessons and methods have been implemented in curricular and extracurricular activities implying living ants during the biology class of VI grade under the curricula lesson entitled Insects. Our results proved that implementing activities with living animals is positively correlated with an increased curiosity, selfreflection, responsibility and prejudice phasing out. Moreover, tested pupils passed all evaluation tests even they mist, some of activities compared to control group that was learn by classic methods.

Multiple factors have influenced the human development, sometimes accelerating it, other times slowing it down to annulation. Although it is known and accepted that creativity’s role is essential in engineering performances, the neglecting of creativity in engineering education is not understood. The graduates from Anglo-Saxon countries and Europe reduced creative potential and the lack of necessary abilities concerning the solving of the companies’ problems have been emphasized by specialists in education and governmental reports reinforces the need to creativity in engineering education. The diagram of engineering education presented in the paper defines in conceptual terms the way engineering study programs can be developed with an adequate creative composition. The evaluation of the students’ creativity level at the master and doctoral levels of engineering programs belonging to two European universities has shown the need for improving creativity solutions. The development of creative abilities can be realized by formulating creative objectives which are specific to learning: creative evaluating topics, open projects, answering topics, originality of solutions and the use of projects method.","PeriodicalId":221827,"journal":{"name":"Balkan Region Conference on Engineering and Business Education","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116378716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
