Though still before 1990, Romania has granted very high attention to this area, unfortunately, next years have marked a series of regressions which led to alarming increases in dropout rates. In 2002, the rate of persons who leave early systems of education and vocational training between the ages of 18 and 24 recorded in 2002 a level of 23%. On the other hand, the economic crisis has had a strong impact on this indicator. If in the period 2003-2008 it had fallen to 15.9%, in 2013 was 17.3%, the 2020 target is 11.3%. Based on these observations, the paper analyzes the evolution of tertiary education in Romania, at the regional level in the period 2003-2013 and the ways that it is influenced by the evolution of gross domestic product in developing regions in Romania. Key words: dropout, econometric model, Romania, tertiary education.

Educational System Gaps in Romania
Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2013
The paper presents a review of the current state of the educational system in Romania. It identifies four main vulnerabilities (ineffectiveness, irrelevance to the new economy and knowledge society, unfairness 2 i.e. inability to create equal opportunities and poor endowment with necessary material and human resources) and argues that correcting these issues is a necessary step in reducing development gaps both within the country and considering regional disparities at the European level. Furthermore, using a means/end approach, the article presents how local policy initiatives could correlate learning outcomes with the need for a more competitive workforce with new skills and qualifications and meet the requirements of the Europe 2020 Agenda. Correcting the identified weaknesses would strengthen the fundamentals of economic development while also reflecting the final goal of economic activity -satisfying human needs.
