Societatea Sportivă Universitară Politehnica Timișoara (), commonly known as SSU Politehnica Timișoara, Politehnica Timișoara, or simply Poli Timișoara, is a Romanian professional football club based in Timișoara, Timiș County, which competes in the Liga II. Originally named ''ASU Politehnica'', the team was formed following the dissolution of the original FC Politehnica Timișoara in 2012.
