School of Engineering

The school of engineering was established in 1976, as the Institute of Superior Education. In 1986 it was transformed into the Sub-Engineering Institute, subordinated to the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca.

In 1990, the Institute of Superior Education changes its name to "Lucian Blaga" University of Sibiu, and the Mechanical Faculty became the School of Engineering.

Honoring the technical contributions of Hermann Oberth, the famous rocket scientist born in Sibiu, the Engineering Faculty adopted his name, and now is called the "Hermann Oberth" School of Engineering. Some of the most prestigious professors who taught here are: Ilie Isarie, Graţian Şteţiu, Dan Nanu, and more recently Constantin Oprean (the actual rector of "Lucian Blaga" University, 2004), Dan Maniu-Duşe, Dan Paul Brândaşu, Lucian Vintan [3], and Octavian Bologa.

Students have now the opportunity to choose from a wide range of technical specializations: Industrial Engineering, Economical Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Computer Science and Computer Engineering, Textile Engineering and Transportation, Distribution and Storage of Hydrocarbures. After graduation, students have the opportunity to continue their studies with post-graduate and doctoral programs in Quality Management, Manufacturing Management, Computer Science, Human Resource Management, Natural Gas Valorification and Advanced CAD Technologies.

In 2001 it was extended with new degree programs: Communication Sciences and Public Relations, as well as Philosophy.
