Abstract: The paper presents an analysis of teaching and learning mathematics in Romanian higher education and it identifies key directions for the reinforcement of the reforms in the light of the challenges faced by officials, communities, enterprises, educators, parents and students under very dynamic and uncertain conditions. It deals with the project developed under the patronage of the Romanian Ministry of Education, Research and Innovation, POSDRU/56/1.2/S/32768, project entitled The Training of University Teachers and Students in the Field of Using Modern Tools to Teach-Learn-Assess for the Mathematical Subjects in Order to Acquire Important Professional and Practical Skills for the Labour Market. It is highlighted that education through mathematics represents an extra proof that, from the educational point of view, Romania is already in line with the European trends. In Romania, teaching and learning mathematics are built up based on modern educational methods which !
generally define the educational process: obtaining basic knowledge, developing the tactical and strategic thinking. It is pointed out that the study of mathematics means an investment with profound implications for the future of the Romanian society, an engine for national development. The paper concludes with a set of key recommendations on education goals and the transition; learning effectiveness, outcomes and the curriculum; management and governance for flexibility, responsiveness and change.
