Summary/Abstract: The higher education in Romania during the communism was as controlled by the State as any other field of activity. Although the communist leaders applied with more or less success their vision of control and organization, the higher education entered a development stage after 1948: growth of the number of students, graduates, specializations and institutions. Also many new higher education centres were established. Among them was Târgu Mureş. In this paper we present and analyze the establishment, development and problems of this higher education centre during communism. The evolution of institutions and specializations with the use of different statistical indicators will be made, highlighting some of the characteristics of Târgu Mureş and analyzing them in the context of the general evolution of higher education.
