Constanța is Romania’s largest Black Sea city and a dynamic study destination that blends seaside lifestyle with a strong academic footprint. Home to Ovidius University of Constanța and the Mircea cel Bătrân Naval Academy, the city attracts students interested in medicine, engineering, IT, maritime studies, and business.
A major port economy, Constanța offers internships in logistics, tourism, energy services, and creative industries, while its seafront promenades, historic peninsula, and nearby seaside resorts make student life feel like a permanent summer.
According to the 2021 population census (definitive results), the municipality hosts ≈263,700 residents, giving it a large-city feel with approachable neighborhoods. International students choose Constanța for English-taught programs, practical placements with port-linked employers, and lower living costs than many EU seaside cities—plus fast rail links to Bucharest and ferry-adjacent regional connections.
Constanța sits on Romania’s southeastern Dobrogea coast (approx. 44.18°N, 28.63°E) facing the Black Sea, with a municipal area of ~124.9 km² that includes beaches, lakes (Siutghiol, Tăbăcărie), and a compact historic core on the peninsula. It lies about 24 km northwest of Mihail Kogălniceanu International Airport and roughly 220–225 km by road from Bucharest via the A2 “Sun” motorway.
The city is the county seat of Constanța County and anchors Romania’s maritime economy through the national port administration. Climate-wise, Constanța is in a temperate-continental with maritime influence zone: hot, breezy summers; mild, drier winters; and lower rainfall than most Romanian regions, characteristic for Dobrogea.
