摘要

The contemporary trend of the globalization does not cancel the cultural differences among the various human entities: states, nations, individuals. It currently constitutes the economic, financial, political frame, able to facilitate interactions and connections. Under these circumstances intercultural education represents a opportunity. Our study aims at identifying the way in which 1st-year students from the Pedagogy of Primary and Pre-School Education, from “Petrol-Gaze” University of Ploie?ti and “Vasile Alecsandri” University of Bac?u, understand this type of education and its place in the context of their training. Finally, we propose several themes and lines for approaching this education's objectives and principles.
