Higher education and research form the backbone of European innovation and development, and with it, the EU’s global competitiveness and long-term ambitions to tackle complex societal challenges.
Transnational joint education provision — education jointly developed and delivered by two or more institutions in different countries — has emerged as a desired experience for many students, a key priority of several institutions, and a site of innovation.
Postdoctoral researchers are important contributors to European higher education, playing significant roles in research, but also in teaching and societal engagement.
European higher education institutions (HEIs) are facing increasing demands for more flexible learning and flexibility in learning paths.
This report presents findings of a preparatory survey conducted among 33 higher education institutions (HEI) who have participated in peer-to-peer counselling missions, as part of a project focused on supporting the implementation of the Bologna Process throughout the European Higher Education Area (EHEA).
The general context in which the European University Association’s Strategic Plan ‘Europe’s Universities Shaping the Future’, was developed has shifted, in some respects dramatically so.
Research on the relationship between learning approaches and variables such as the perceived impact of some university activities is limited. The present study analyses the relationship between Learning approaches (Student Process Questionnaire, SPQ) and high-impact educational practices (HIEPs).
To effectively generate solutions to today's complex challenges, cooperation between governments, industry, civil society and academia is essential.
Since 1999, the Bologna Process has advocated towards a new teaching paradigm, the so-called student-centred approach to learning, as well as towards more coherence of the higher education system across Europe. This paper explores how co-creation of course contents and learning activities, for and with students, may be implemented to sustain a student-centred evolution of teaching.
This briefing looks back on developments affecting Europe’s recognition regimes – both professional and academic – in 2023.
Consistently applied research security policies, with a strong emphasis on open and responsible cooperation, should set the tone for policies regarding EU’s global role in research and education.
