- Abstract
The university is involved in the creation of human investment, indispensable for growth. The evaluation of its effectiveness requires the use of a large number of criteria on quality, called standards, which allow establishing performance indicators differentiated between countries. For the higher education institutions in Romania, we have to limit ourselves to basic criteria relevant to a triple logic: cognitive, educational and democratic. For several years, the use of a set of standards to guarantee the quality of higher education has increased considerably worldwide. In the European area, the Tempus program, which encourages intra-community academic cooperation, proposes such indicators. Initially a source of knowledge for the few initiated, universities have progressively become a vector of social advancement for a certain bourgeoisie. Today, they are conceived as an industry of knowledge meant to produce ever more intellectual capital or human investment for the sake of development and economic growth. This is why there is greater need to assess the quality of higher education institutions on the basis of more standards and indicators.
