Summary/Abstract: The professor-student relations have passed –with lapse of timethrough several stages; thus, numbers of years before, a good university professor was thought to be the one who managed to keep the students quiet in the lecture room while they were diligently jotting down notes thus obeying what they were transmitted, via dictation. The relaxed atmosphere in the lecture- or seminar room, as well as the students’ personality and the now barrier-less teacher’s desk and student’s desk is proof of the university-professor’s role as moderator. Thus, the student will turn from a mere listener into a shape-giver of himself. However, in order to accomplish such a desideratum the guidance of a teaching cadre is necessary –i.e., the moderating professor’s-to guide the student towards understanding what is essential or important in a field; how to measure information or, find out the practical value of the material studied. The study attribute to the present piece of work is based on the necessity of bringing the Romanian university teaching system to the standard levels extant in the European Union so that the lecturer does not have to deliver just another lecture but to actively imply the student in the deduction of knowledge.
