THE IMPACT PROGRAMME. EUROPEAN STRUCTURAL FUNDS FOR ROMANIAN RESEARCH "MULTIDISCIPLINARY REGIONAL CENTER OF RESEARCH-ENVIRONMENTAL GEOLOGY DEVELOPMENT"
Abstract
Romania’s joining the European Union implies its convergence with the economic European Space, both at a nominal and at a real space. The IMPACT programme stimulates the development of living research development projects and innovation through which directions of the Lisbon strategy of the European Union may contribute to improve the process of convergence and reduce regional disparities by absorbing structural funds devoted to research, technological development and innovation. The Valahia University of Targoviste, as a part of the Romanian academic education is on the path of complex modernization and European integration through a didactic process, competitive scientific research and mobilities of the teaching staff and students in the European space. The implementation of the “Multidisciplinary Regional Center of Research- Environmental geology Development” in the socio-economic area of the South Muntenia is relevant for the strategic objectives of the priority axis II “The increase of the economic competitivity through research, technical development and innovation”, according to those imposed by POS-CCE (Sectorial Operation Programme for the Increase of the Economic Competitivity). The setting up of such a center contributes to the increase of the research capacity, having as consequence the level of economic competitivity regionally and nationally, and also the possibility of cooperation between similar research centers of the European Community. The development of the researchdevelopment- innovation leads to a diversified offer of innovative services and along with it, the implementation of methods and technologies meant to ensure higher quality of products and services.
