  • an interview in English – a short oral presentation of a research topic that is of interest to the applicant.

The presentation may be based on envisioned extensions from bachelor diploma work and it should prove that the applicant has basic knowledge related to the Systems and Control field of study. For applicants outside Romania, the interview can be conducted on Skype, based on a prior scheduling with the admission committee.
The average grade accounted for the admission is constructed as follows:

AG = 0,4 * IG + 0,6 * AUE,

where:
AG = Admission grade, IG = Interview grade, AUE = Average undergraduate exam.
