Short history
The Faculty
of Physics, Chemistry and Petroleum Technology is one of the
most prestigious of the Ovidius University of Constanţa. Even
though it was founded in its present structure only recently, being
established in 1999 by reorganizing the Faculty of Engineering and
the Faculty of Natural Sciences, the faculty continues a
tradition of higher education in Constanţa started in 1961. The physics
and chemistry programs were initiated in 1961, while the chemical
engineering program in petroleum technology was started in 1977. The past ten years have
been the most dynamic, with expansions in terms of academic programs
offered, in terms of academic
staff, infrastructure and number of students. At the
bachelor's level, there are two 3-year programs, in Physics and in
Chemistry, and three 4-year programs, in Chemical Engineering (Petroleum
technology and petrochemistry as well as Food cehmistry and
biochemical technology) and Electronic Engineering. At
the master's level,
there are two 2-year programs in Physics and in Chemistry and one
2-year program in Chemical Engineering. We have now over
35 full time and associated faculty members, an auxiliary staff of
about 15, and over 700 students.
