Authors recall recent development of environmental education at the faculty of mechanical engineering for implementing the first environmentally oriented subject to the establishment of independent department. They characterize contemporary state of environmentally education and they outline the perspectives the way of its further development. At the same time they specify also the profile of graduates and the educational plans for particular types, forms and branches of study and personal and laboratory equipment including scientific research support of pedagogical process.

When the total measurement limit error goes beyond 20% of the prescribed tolerance for the parameter to be checked here is the risk accepting some parts which reality are waste and there is the risk of rejecting some other parts which in fact are good. These risks, take place with a certain probability, according to the ration between the measurement limit error and the tolerance prescribed for the parameter to be checked. This paper make an deep analyze related to the dependence of the control uncertainty degree on the asymmetry αd of the 6σ-errors' distribution compared to tolerace.

In this paper, single-processors job shop scheduling problems are solved by a heuristic algorithm based on the hybrid of priority dispatching rules according to an ant colony optimization algorithm. The objective function is to minimize the makespan i.e. total completion time , in which a simultanous presence of various kinds of ferons is allowed. The process of finding the best solution will be improved by using the suitable hybrid of priority dispatching rules. Ant colony optimization algorithm, not only promote the ability of this proposed algorithm, but also decreases the total working time because of decreasing in setup times and modifying the working production line. By solving some problems as samples (i.e. Fisher's & Thomson's problems), this algorithm is compared with the others. The results show that when the size of the problem becomes larger the deviation from lower limit increases, but its rate decreases with the size of the problems, so that it reaches to its limit.

The modern concept of quality management understands construction and implementation of an internal system of organization, respectively of a system of the quality management (QMS). This means arranging the business system which treats the quality through all aspects of making the business and by which the organization is directed by the demands of its users. This again comes from the definition itself of the quality is defined from "up side", and that it expresses an expert opinion, is the matter of past in all the fields of work and business. The quality must be related to users function, respectively to users satisfaction. From this trends are not exempted neither the higher education organization dedicates an important part to the quality management. Related to that, numerous reports, analyses and discussions, carried out in the framework of actual reform, show that the important changes of existing state are necessary, in view of the organization and advancement of higher education. In the work are assumed the experiences of the international quality standards in higher education institutions, considering the significant specific particularity of our high education reality. The former can help the more efficient adaptation to the demands of the Bologna process.

The discipline of business administration has close relations with the disciplines of economics, law, behavioral sciences, statistics and mathematics. The manager of an enterprise should not only manage the sources of capital securing the maximum profit, but also he/she should have knowledge on how to manage the people working for the enterprise (workers and other personnel). Social politics is the discipline which analyses the human relations arising from economic affairs. Thus the main concern of this discipline is the influence of economics on human beings and society as well as the social problems arising from economic affairs. The aim is the general harmony between all the segments of the society, i.e. creation and maintenance of social balance. Globalization has shown its effects also on the existing disciplines. For instance business administration has adopted the concept of social responsibility enlarging its field of interest. As a result of this enlargement, social politics and social responsibility have largely corresponded to each other in terms of scope. However this correspondence is valid only for partners, but not for actors and instruments involved.
