The School of Veterinary Medicine in Bucharest was established “de jure” in 1861, when the Romanian veterinary medicine education made an important qualitative leap, represented by the School of Veterinary Medicine from the National School of Medicine and Pharmacy, following Carol Davila’s initiative, confirmed by Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza’s Decree of 15 May 1861. The paper briefly depicts the evolution of veterinary medicine in Romania, since its beginnings and until today, from the first veterinary medicine lessons, which led to the formation of the first School of Veterinary Medicine, and later to the transformation in 1921 of the Higher School of Veterinary Medicine in Bucharest into the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. Under the management of Professor Alexandru Locusteanu, the prestige of the veterinary school raised it to the rank of “Higher School of Veterinary Medicine” beginning with 1883; modernizing the educational process, by its significant applicative character; he selected the most valuable of his graduates to become the school’s academic staff, he imprinted a rigurous discipline, drawing out the first school regulation as well; he introduced the obligation to defend a thesis in order to get the degree of veterinary surgeon. He was preocuppied to obtain the necessary funds for the erection of the building on Splaiul Independentei no. 105, the headquarters still in use today, which he finished together with Ioan Popescu, who was the school manager alternatively with Locusteanu. In 1885, Professor Vasile Lucaci, aged 79, being considered the founding father of veterinary medicine education, was called to symbolically lay the founding stone to the building of the Higher School of Veterinary Medicine from Bucharest.

The paper briefly presents the history of the TMR (Theory of Mechanisms and Robots) Department of Polytechnic University of Bucharest, the place where the basic engineering sciences of mechanics, robotics, mechatronics, automation were born. Also, within this department, there were laid the foundations of engineering faculties in the fields of mechanics and industry; the first disciplines specific to the academic scientific fields of industrial and mechanical engineering were born. Here, the first multidisciplinary research appeared in the fields of computerized analytical geometry, special mathematics, computational graphics, graphic-analytical methods, in various collaborations with specialised departments in the fields of: mathematics, automation, physics, descriptive geometry, CAD, mechanics. The “soul” and creator of this department was obviously the late Dr.Eng. Docent Professor N.I. Manolescu, a corresponding member of the Romanian Academy.

This article was written out of the desire to express our gratitude to the pioneers of Romanian Informatics and our duty to future generations to pass on the knowledge of Romanian Informatics. The article describes with evidence the primary role of the Computing Center of the University of Bucharest (CCUB) in the pioneering field of Computing systems (hardware and software) in Romania. In order to keep up with the state-of-the-art technology represented by electronic computers that appeared after 1945 worldwide, in 1959 Acad. Grigore C. Moisil introduced a new specialisation in higher education, called Computing Machines, and in 1962 he founded the Computing Center of the University of Bucharest (CCUB), within the Faculty of Mathematics. Future generations have the right and duty to know that Cybernetics was created in Romania (1938–1939) – the creation of the military doctor Ștefan Odobleja, that Romania developed a Romanian computer science (Grigore C. Moisil, after 1953) and built its own electronic computer (Victor Toma, CIFA–1, in 1957). Neither the Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics, nor the University of Bucharest are allowed to ignore the fact that Grigore C. Moisil and CCUB had a great pioneering role in the emergence and development of Romanian informatics.

Scientist Grigore Antipa is – together with Emil Racovitza and Ioan Borcea – the co founder of Romanian Marine Sciences, more precisely of biological oceanography in Romania. His professional, scientific and organisational activity gave him a special appreciation and some of the most important official dignities. All culminated in his election as a full member of the Romanian Academy. At the same time, he maintained close relations with the members of the Royal House of Romania and with leading intellectuals, including foreign citizens, especially Germans. Among the latter was the Roman Catholic German Swiss Archbishop of Bucharest, Raymund Netzhammer, founder of the Church of St. Basil the Great. His diary records his vision of the political, military and religious events in Bucharest during the years in which he exercised his priestly mandate; it also reflects the contact he had with Grigore Antipa during that time.
