Abstract

Through this paper, the authors have propose to briefly illustrate the shift from the “approach of knowledge as a product” to the “approach of knowledge as a process”, conducted through the Bologna Process in technical higher education. In this latter approach, the emphasis is on student rather than on teacher, as it is in the case of traditional higher education. The applied research was conducted at the Satu-Mare Branch of the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca through the project “Specialists for Satu-Mare” and the survey was used as method and the questionnaire as tool. The information gathered through the questionnaires distributed to both parties involved: students and teachers were analyzed. The aim of the research is to identify possible malfunctions and to propose recommendations for improving interactions in the educational process. The most important findings are: the need for the learning process to transfer especially practical knowledge and the promotion of “Professor Bologna's portrait” among teachers obtained as a result of applied research.
