THE ACTIVITIES OF ENGINEER ECONOMISTS IN THE HUMAN RESOURCES SYSTEM

The human resource representing the most important factor of production in any human activity and recent developments in both the national economy and the economies of developed countries involve new skills needed by students for careers and status of European citizens. Unfortunately a growing gap is revealed between the skills and the title, the content of courses that are taught and tested in universities, their lack of innovation. We believe, following our studies, that economic engineering is one of the new skills necessary for survival in a subsistence economy. The Romanian economy has changed profoundly since 1989, meaning that Romania’s industrial infrastructure was situated among the first 10 countries in Europe, and today is one of the subsistence. These issues create opportunities in the current configuration of the labor market, the occupations, in the human resources system, of engineers and economists in their formation as innovators.
