In 2019, the University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest (UPB) endorsed the principles established in The European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers (C&C).

On 28 April 2019 UPB has started the procedure for the implementation of the Human Resources Strategy for Researchers, in order to obtain the HR Excellence in Research award, by fully endorsing the 40 principles of the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers.

On September 7th, 2020 our University was granted the ”HR Excellence in Research” award.

The assessors welcomed the care taken in aligning our institution’s HR practices with those of the Charter and Code principles. The comprehensive analysis and action plan meet all the requirements for the use of the ‘HR Excellence in research’ award.

The award reflects our commitment to continuously improve our human resource policies in line with the European Charter for Researchers and the Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers, notably the UPB commitment to achieve fair and transparent recruitment and appraisal procedures.
