The Internet of Things (IoT) represents an emerging technology that integrates various physical and virtual objects into a global network in order to allow the interaction and communication between them. The IoT strength is represented by the high impact on many everyday life aspects, and on the quality of life of potential users. In the same time, the IoT brings enormous challenges and opportunities to the higher education, as these technologies are useful not only in improving the core values of teaching and research or in measuring and analyzing various parameters of the educational environment, but also they create a new interaction between people and the educational environment within an organization. The objective of this research is to explore Romanian students' intention to use the Internet of Things for educational purposes. The research method is represented by a survey, and the data collection tool is an online questionnaire. The results show that while learning effectiveness, ease of use, facilitating conditions and training have a significant influence on the intention to use IoT technologies, gender is an irrelevant variable.
