THE ROMANIAN COMMITTEE FOR THE HISTORY AND PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY. CONSTANŢA BRANCH

Abstract

The Romanian Committee for the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology/ RCHPST, belonging to the Romanian Academy, currently has seven branches: Argeş, Braşov, Cluj-Napoca, Constanţa, Craiova, Iaşi and Timişoara. The Constanţa branch was established in 1993. It currently includes full members, associates and collaborators who represent various scientific and technical fields (agriculture, physics, biology, marine sciences, history, medicine, engineering, seamanship, archival research, etc.); some of the full members are also members of other academic institutions, such as the Academy of Romanian Scientists, the Academy of Agricultural and Forestry Sciences, the Academy of Medical Sciences, the General Association of Engineers in Romania, as well as from abroad. This branch organizes an annual scientific symposium with diverse topics, more recently a Symposium on “History of Construction” and occasionally other scientific events. The annual scientific symposia usually include between three and five oral presentations; some are published in the journals of RCHPST.
