Clubul Sportiv Municipal Politehnica Iași is a professional football club from Iași, Romania. The club was founded in 2010 and currently plays in the Liga I.
On August 2010, Tricolorul Breaza merged with Navoby Iași and formed ACSMU Politehnica Iași. While in the Liga II, the club's objective was to return to the first tier of Romanian football. Ionuț Popa was appointed manager and Grigore Sichitiu as executive president. In the summer of 2011, the club was renamed Clubul Sportiv Municipal Studenţesc Iași.
For the second half of the 2011–12 season ex-Romanian international Florin Prunea was brought in as manager. There were major changes in the roster, the coach considering almost half of the players unfit for attacking promotion. On June 2, 2012, after two years in the second tier of Romanian football, CSMS Iași gained promotion to Liga I after the 4–2 victory against Farul Constanța.
After the exodus of players such as Cristian Hăisan, Yamoudou Camara and Rodoljub Marjanović, the team went into reconstruction, with players such as Petar Jovanović,Cezar Lungu and Claudiu Ionescu joining CSMS Iași. On 29 August, Liviu Ciobotariu was appointed head coach. The Moldavian team finished the 2012–13 season in 17th place and were relegated to the second division.
