As a direct result, the Academy of Higher Agricultural Studies, The Academy of Architecture, The Institute of Industrial Chemistry and Agricultural and Food Chemistry, respectively, were introduced in the frame of “Bucharest POLITEHNICA”. The change of name from “Polytechnic School of Bucharest” into “POLITEHNICA of Bucharest” was accompanied by other changes as well. Thus, POLITEHNICA depended on the Ministry of National Education (instead of the Ministry for Public Works), the former director became Rector of POLITEHNICA, the different sections became Faculties, their presidents in turn, became Deans etc. Thus, the following establishments, were initially faculties or departments at “POLITEHNICA” University of Bucharest: The University for Civil Engineering – Bucharest; The name of this school was “The Polytechnic Institute of Bucharest”. Based on the resolution of the Senate (November 1992), The Polytechnic Institute of Bucharest turned into University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest, preserving the name “POLITEHNICA”, proudly used by generations of students.
