Abstract	Critical thinking is considered to be an important outcome that all students, regardless of their academic major, need to achieve during their undergraduate study. In addition, critical thinking allows students to respond to less well-defined problems and thus to be better prepared for both personal and professional challenges. Taking into consideration the importance of critical thinking in the learning process we have investigated, in order to identify the references to the concept of critical thinking, 56 Romanian school science curricula available at the website of the Ministry of Education, Research and Innovation. The analysis has been made on two levels. The first level of analysis was the terminology level and the second level was the level of the critical thinking skills. The results presented in this study revealed that critical thinking is not a real concern for the authors of the Romanian school curricula for science subjects. (Orig./DIPF/GS).
