The Faculty of Textiles, Leather and Industrial
Management       

• The Faculty is the first textile faculty in
  Romania and the only one until 1990
• The Faculty of Textile and Leather Technology was
  founded in 1934 in Bucharest
• Since 1952 it is located in Iasi and in 1955 it
  was incorporated within The Gh.Asachi Technical
  University
• Since 1995 it has been a member of AUTEX
  (Association of Textile Universities)
• Since 1999 our specializations are recognized by
  FEANI (European Federation of National
  Engineering Associations)
• Starting with 2000, The Textile Institute of
  Manchester began to recognize our graduate
  diplomas.
