Bologna - only half the battle?
The Bologna process and the introduction of Bachelor and Master system forces the EU European comparable degrees. This is reasonable in view of the integration process of the EU and a growing internal labor market.
stay But where the efforts for a single European higher education access ? students all European countries, torture is now in the Bachelor's program around with full schedules. make efforts to access these courses are comparable, but nowhere in sight.
This leads to strong in the face of European freedom of movement distortions and burdens of individual countries. The most obvious is the problem if you look to Austria. The local universities have no general restrictions on access. German students who fail in their home on numerus clausus soft, so happy out in the southern neighboring country. This leads to chaotic conditions and overcrowded courses. In Salzburg enroll now a faculty at some more German than Austrian students. In Belgium, there are similar problems with students from France.
These observations point to an open construction site during the "output" (ie financial statements) of European higher education is standardized, the design of the "input" (access) in a fragmented way. The entry requirements vary from state to state, as are the tuition fees. This leads to inequality and injustice. align
aspirations to higher education in Europe would also need to a huge political effort, to which apparently no one feels called. With growing integration and pressures for individual European countries, this issue will no longer be pushed to the backburner.
