Why study in Arad

Arad County lies in the western part of Romania, near the Hungarian border and is Romania's main Western Europe entrance gate. The county`s capital is the city of Arad (with a population of almost 175.000), which lies on the banks of Mures River. The city blends beautiful natural landscapes with a charming baroque, renaissance, neo-classic and neo-gothic style architecture.


Today, Arad is an important industrial center and public transport hub, hosts two universities, a Romanian Orthodox theological seminary, a teacher training college and a music conservatory.

Outdoor activities can be performed all year round: from spring to autumn one can indulge in walking, skating and biking while during winter ice-skating is available at the city’s ice rink.


Not far from Arad, about 22 km away, you can find Lake Ghioroc, an artificial lake, popular for its sand and palm-tree beach, clubs and restaurants, nautical sports (wind-surfing and diving) and most importantly, Ghioroc Summer Fest, a ten-weekend long festival with DJs from all over the world who entertain everyone right there on the beach.
