| description | Professor Mihai Ristea (1939-2023) was a remarkable
scientific personality who strongly influenced Romanian
accounting for almost half a century, at the turn of the
second and third millennia. It isn't easy to encompass within
a narrow framework all the professional facets of a skilled
man who charted new directions in the field of accounting
and a professor who shaped the destinies of dozens of
generations of students. Therefore, we select only a few
significant milestones that define his activity.
Mihai Ristea was born on July 14, 1939, in Segarcea, Dolj
County. He graduated from the Faculty of Finance, Credit,
and Accounting at the then Institute of Economic Sciences in
Bucharest with a merit diploma in 1962. Subsequently, he was employed as an instructor at
the Department of General Accounting, successively holding the positions of assistant,
lecturer, associate professor, and full professor. He obtained his Ph.D. in Economics in
1971, and in 1990 he was appointed as a Ph.D. supervisor in the field of Accounting. After
the Revolution in 1989, Professor Mihai Ristea held the positions of Dean of the Faculty of
Accounting (1990-1996), Vice-Rector of the Bucharest University of Economic Studies
(1996-1999), Head of the Department of Accounting (1999-2000), and Head of the
Department of Accounting, Audit, and Management Control (2000-2008). In addition,
Professor Mihai Ristea was a member of various professional bodies, specialized
committees, and councils, including the National Program for Economic and Social
Development of Romania initiated in 1990; the World Bank Program for Improving
Accounting in Romania; the Consultative College of Accounting within the Ministry of
Public Finance; the Body of Expert and Licensed Accountants of Romania (CECCAR); the
National Commission for the Certification of University Titles, Diplomas, and Certificates
(CNATDCU) at the Ministry of Education and Research. A series of national and
international specializations further enriched his innovative spirit and thirst for knowledge.
The entire activity of Professor Mihai Ristea reflected in books and articles, represented a
“true cornerstone” for the reform of accounting in Romania. |
