Bologna – What do we need this for?
In Germany:
Reduction of study time Reduction of high drop out
rates Joining rationales of
education vs. requirements of the labor market
Increase employability More structure and
supervision
In the RF:
International recognition of degrees (in RU and D)
Increasing flexibility of the study system
(Inter-) national mobility Differentiation of diploma
towards “mixed” and key competencies
Sharpened occupational orientation

Bologna compliant studies in Germany (1)
October 2005: 3.842 new BA- and MA-studies about 34 % of all studies Among these about 42% MA-studies About 820 BA/MA-studies accredited ( 27,5 %) Only 5,3 % of all students enrolled in BA-MA
2003/2004: 1785 BA- and MA-studies

All 16 Bundesländer (Federal states) intend to finalize reforms by 2010 – by using different strategies
Fixed Date, e.g North Rhine Westphalia “only enrollment for studies complying to the bologna process” after 2006/07
Target agreement between HEI and regional Ministry, e.g. Saxony and Berlin
Voluntary transition to new model, e.g. Rhineland Palatinate
And Russia? Fixed date 2007/08?

Why is Bologna attractive for Students?
Flexibilization of careers Life long learning International recognition of studies Education more individual Less / more structured studies More Support for foreign students in Germany
(PROFIS)
04/22/23 Stefan Schwan • [email protected] 9/14
Why is Bologna attractive for Russian and German HEIs?
Development of internationally recognized studies and diploma, positioning on the international education market
Entry for foreign students is getting easier New target groups (income generating for HEIs?) More freedom to compete with other HEIs and
develop individual programs Developing specific profiles (targeting students,
international partners etc.)
04/22/23 Stefan Schwan • [email protected] 10/14
DAAD-programmes connected to the Bologna Process
International Summer Schools (GoEast) Foreign languages?
Joint degrees with Russian HEIs (presently about 80 Joint degrees at German universities, increasing) Recognition of Diploma? „Double“-Degrees? Languages?
Scholarships for Master studies, PhD etc. Where are the Bachelors? Integration in international Grad Schools?

Two thirds of all BA/MA offer the program or a part of it in a foreign language; 17% offer even a large part in a foreign language (mostly MA)
In 20% a stay abroad is compulsory (34% for economics an law)
Two thirds of BA/MA involve representatives of the labor market actively (especially FH)

Bologna-compliant studies in Germany (2)

Why is Bologna attractive for employers?
Qualifications that “fit” (Bachelor or Master, practical or theoretical, subject specific or broad education)
Multiple qualifications (e.g. business engineer)
Graduates with internationally recognized degrees, new possibilities for HR-Management
Apart from subject knowledge training in „soft skills“
04/22/23 Stefan Schwan • [email protected] 14/14
The Common Challenge
Reserved attitude and fears of HEIs and information deficit Lacking financial capacities Lacking human resources esp. in transition period Occupational qualification of graduates Recognition and success on the labor market Acceptance among students Reforming state examination (law, teachers, medicine) Changing attitude towards mobility Time is scarce to reach the target by 2010!
