Summary/Abstract: Urbanization is an ongoing phenomenon, in what regards both the expansion of the urban land and the growing percent of urban population. One of the essential methods of improvement of the urban life consists of the correct building of parks, gardens and greens ward. The urban flora can increase – on a small scale – the biodiversity of new species but sometimes against local species making it easier for invasive species to expand. Big institutions, companies and even the residents can play bigger or smaller roles in the development of the town’s ecological activities. This study of the flora is a preliminary one, its purpose consisting of establishing an inventory and the making of lists of woody and herbaceous plants from the University of Oradea’s campus park, Universitatii street, no. 1. Between march and October of 2020, we identified 76 species of herbaceous plants, belonging to 32families and 62 species of trees and shrubs belonging to 32 families.
