Abstract
The new universities from Romania are concerned with the high – technology promotion in curriculum and research programmes. As for remote sensing, a wide applicable technique in Earth and Environment Sciences, these universities have some specific problems: inclusion of Remonte Sensing in university and postuniversity curriculum, elaboration of syllabus and handbooks, creation of remote sensing laboratories, univesity cooperation, joining professional associations, attending scientifical meetings. All these problems are emphasized by examples from the activity carried on by Valahia University of Targoviste, founded in 1992.
