Abstract: The present paper is the outcome of research carried out within the project POS DRU „Internship for tomorrow’s technology”, implemented by the Academy of Economic Studies in Bucharest, as project Partner, during 2014-2015. The research endeavours resulted in a study regarding the relevance of project activities to the labour demand for Economics graduates, and its correlation to the labour supply in the Bucuresti-Ilfov region. With the aim of evaluating the project’s relevance for the characteristics and dynamics of labour demand in the Bucuresti-Ilfov region, we have carried out a primary research, based on questionnaires, among 120 students in the economic field, from the Academy of Economic Studies. The results, obtained also by following the counseling sessions and the professional career guidance, reveals that the students' practical activities largely covers the skills and abilities required by future employers. In a broader sense, the paper aims to point out the relevance of the Operational Sectoral Programme „Human Resources Development” to the development of human capital in Romania, in what regards higher education graduates in the economic field.
