Abstract

Education can improve economic development. Starting from this assumption, the purpose of this study is to examine and understand the Romanian education system. To illustrate this aim, we have applied cluster analysis for a sample of 41 forty-one counties and we have used seven variables (Enrolled Population, Employment rate, Gross domestic product, ClassRooms, ClassRoom Teachers, School workshop and Education Units). One of the more significant findings to emerge from this study is that counties such as Cluj, Iasi, Timis, Constanta and Prahova presents the highest number of school workshops and classroom teachers, while also underlining the existence of the best-performing economies – in terms of GDP and Employment rate.
