Bologna Process

TheBologna Processis a series of ministerial meetings and agreements between European countries to ensure comparability in the standards and quality of higher-education qualifications.[1]The process has created theEuropean Higher Education Areaunder theLisbon Recognition Convention.It is named after theUniversity of Bologna,where theBologna declarationwas signed by education ministers from 29 European countries in 1999. The process was opened to other countries in theEuropean Cultural Convention[2]of theCouncil of Europe,and government meetings have been held inPrague(2001),Berlin(2003),Bergen(2005),London(2007),Leuven(2009),Budapest-Vienna(2010),Bucharest(2012),Yerevan(2015),Paris(2018), andRome(2020).

Before the signing of the Bologna declaration, theMagna Charta Universitatumwas issued at a meeting of university rectors celebrating the 900th anniversary of theUniversity of Bologna(and European universities) in 1988. One year before the declaration, education ministersClaude Allègre(France),Jürgen Rüttgers(Germany),Luigi Berlinguer(Italy) andBaroness Blackstone(UK) signed the Sorbonne declaration in Paris in 1998, committing themselves to "harmonising the architecture of the European Higher Education system".[3]The Bologna Process has 49 participating countries.[4]

Signatories

edit

Signatories of the Bologna Accord,[5]members of theEuropean Higher Education Area,are:[6]

European Higher Education Area

All member states of the EU are participating in the process, with the European Commission also a signatory.MonacoandSan Marinoare the only members of theCouncil of Europewhich did not adopt the process.

TheESU,EUA,EURASHE,EI,ENQA,UNICE, theCouncil of EuropeandUNESCOare part of the process' follow-up. Other groups at this level areENIC,NARICandEURODOC.

Rejected countries

edit

Four countries,Israel,Kyrgyzstan,and the unrecognizedNorthern CyprusandKosovo,have applied to join but did not meet the membership criteria.[7]

Israel is not a party to the European Cultural Convention of the Council of Europe, although it has observer status. Although Israel is not geographically part of Europe, it is part of the UNESCO European Region (although not a UNESCO member).[8][9]Israel has also ratified theLisbon Recognition Conventionbut, under the criteria of the2003 Berlin Communiqué,it is ineligible for the Bologna Process.

Kosovo is not a party to the European Cultural Convention of the Council of Europe. AlthoughSerbiais a party, Kosovodeclared independencefrom it and has theoretically been a part of the Bologna Process since theKosovo War.It was suggested that Kosovo could be associated with the process in a category appropriate to its situation, such as guest or special-observer status.

Kyrgyzstan is not a party to the European Cultural Convention of the Council of Europe, although has also ratified the Lisbon Recognition Convention.

Northern Cyprus is not a party to the European Cultural Convention of the Council of Europe and not recognized as an independent political entity by any member of the Bologna Process except Turkey.

Qualifications framework

edit

The basic framework is three cycles of higher-educationqualifications.The framework[10]adopted by the ministers at their meeting in Bergen in 2005 defines the qualifications in terms of learning outcomes, which are statements of what students know and can do on completing their degrees. In describing the cycles, the framework uses theEuropean Credit Transfer and Accumulation System(ECTS):

  • First cycle: typically 180–240 ECTS credits (a minimum of 60 credits peracademic year), usually awarding abachelor's degree.The European Higher Education Area did not introduce a bachelor-with-honours programme, which allows graduates to receive a "BA hons." degree (used, for example, in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada) and sometimes enables graduates to begin doctoral studies without first obtaining a master's degree.
  • Second cycle: typically 60–120 ECTS credits (a minimum of 60 credits per academic year), usually awarding amaster's degree.
  • Third cycle (doctoraldegree): There is no concrete ECTS range, since the disciplines vary in length and comprehensiveness. However, some countries have minimum credit weight requirements on doctoral degrees. Those country-level requirements typically require 120–420 ECTS of study.

In most cases, it would take three to four years to earn abachelor's degreeand another one or two years for amaster's degree.Doctoral degrees usually require another two to four years of specialization, primarily individual research under a mentor. Degree names may vary by country. One academic year normally corresponds to 60 ECTS credits, equivalent to 1,500–1,800 hours of study.

Effects by state

edit

The process, an intergovernmental agreement between EU and non-EU countries, does not have the status of EU legislation. Since the Bologna Declaration is not a treaty or convention, there are no legal obligations for the signatory states; participation and cooperation are voluntary.

Although the declaration was created without a formal affiliation with EU institutions, the European Commission (which has supported European projects such as the Tuning and TEEP projects) plays an important role in implementing the process. Most countries do not fit the framework, using their traditional systems. The process, which will result in bilateral agreements between countries and institutions which recognise each other's degrees, is moving from strict convergence in time spent on qualifications towards a competency-based system which will have an undergraduate and postgraduate division (with a bachelor's degree in the former and a master's and doctorate in the latter).

In mainland Europe, five-year-plus first degrees are common. Many do not complete their studies, and many countries are introducing bachelor-level qualifications. The situation is evolving as the Bologna Process is implemented.

Some countries introduced theEuropean Credit Transfer and Accumulation System(ECTS) and discussed their degree structures, qualifications, financing and management of higher education and mobility programmes. At the institutional level, the reform involved higher-education institutions, their faculties or departments, student and staff representatives and other factors. Priorities varied by country and institution.

Andorra

edit

In Andorra, degrees are awarded by the state in all three cycles (bachelor's, master's and doctoral). The University of Andorra[11]has adapted its classroom studies to the European Higher Education Area in accordance with the Bologna Agreement. The degree workload is counted in European credits, with a European equivalent of 180 credits (three years) for bachelor's degrees and 120 credits (two years) for master's degrees.

Austria

edit
See also:Education in Austria

Austria's situation is similar to Germany's, with the lowest undergraduate degrees the Magister (FH) and Diplom (FH) (designed to take three or four years). The lowest graduate degrees areMagisterandDiplom,which typically fulfill athesisrequirement (including final examination and thesis defence) and can be obtained after four to six years of study. In 2000 many curricula began to be converted into bachelor's degrees (Bakkalaureat;the term was replaced by "bachelor's" in most curricula by 2007) and master's (Magisterstudium) programmes, with nominal durations of six semesters (three years) and three to four semesters (18 months to two years) respectively.

Enrollment in a doctoral programme generally requires a master's degree in a related field. Although the nominal duration of doctoral programmes is two or three years, the time to graduate varies considerably and is generally longer.

Belarus

Belarus became a member of the European Higher Education Area at a conference inYerevan,Armenia,in May 2015.[13]

Croatia

edit
See also:Education in Croatia

InCroatia,implementation of the Bologna Process began during the 2005–2006 academic year. Diplomadegree becamebaccalaureate(bachelor's degree,Croatian:prvostupnik), and the programmes were shortened from four to about three years.Magisterij(master's degree) is achieved after two additional years of post-graduate study. Thedoktoratdegree (doctorate) may be received after three more years (eight years total).

The typical length of study is three years for a bachelor's degree (baccalaureus), two years for a master's degree (magistar) and three years for a doctor of science (doktor znanosti). A local distinction is made between vocational and academic degrees at the baccalaureate level, and between engineering and other programs at levels below the doctoral.

There are several exceptions. The first degree in economics still takes four years, and the master's degree is obtained after an additional year at theUniversity of Zagreb'sFaculty of Economics andZagreb School of Economics and Management.The four-plus-one-year system also applies to fine arts and music. Medical and related studies replace the bachelor's degree with six-yearfirst professional degreesand graduateDoctor of Medicine(doktor medicine) degrees.

The old degrees are translated as follows:

  • Diplomaholders hold master's degrees (magistar inženjerfor engineers andmagistarfor others).
  • The old master's degree is grandfathered intomagistar znanosti(Master of Science), an intermediate title between the new master's degree and a doctorate for local use.
  • Doctoral degrees remain the same.

In May 2008, about 5,000 students protested weak funding, imprecisely defined new rules and the poor results of the Bologna reform.[14]

Denmark

edit
See also:Education in Denmark

Denmark introduced the 3+2+3 system in 1971 with an education-management working group of the Society of Danish Engineers and a 1984–85 group of the Federation of Danish Industries, both headed by Hans Bruno Lund. Before the adoption of international standards, the lowest degree normally awarded at universities inDenmarkwas equivalent to a master's degree (Kandidat/cand.mag). Although bachelor's degrees have been obtained after three years of study, most students[15]continue the additional two years required for a master's degree. Mid-length (two-to four-year) professional degrees have been adapted as professional bachelor's degrees (3+1⁄2years).

Finland

edit
See also:Education in Finland

In the Finnish pre-Bologna system, higher education was divided between universities andpolytechnics.In universities, degrees were divided in most fields into a three-year bachelor's degree (kandidaatti) and a two-year master's degree (maisteri). In these fields, the Bologna Process resulted in no change.

In engineering, universities only offered a5+1⁄2-year master's program (diplomi-insinööri). This has been replaced by a three-year bachelor's degree (tekniikan kandidaatti) and a two-year master's degree (diplomi-insinööri), for which the English names are Bachelor of Science (Technology) and Master of Science (Technology).[16]A corresponding change has been made in military higher education, where the officer's degree was divided between bachelor's and master's programmes. FinnishUniversities of Applied Sciences,which have offered bachelor's-equivalent engineering programmes, began offering master's-degree programs in 2005.[17]Some Master of Engineering (insinööri (ylempi AMK)) programmes are taught in English.[18]

Only medicine and dentistry retain their non-standard degree structure, where theLicentiate(higher than a master's degree, but less extensive than Doctor of Medicine or Dentistry degrees) is the basic degree. A six-year program of at least 360 ECTS credits leads to the Licentiate of Medicine (lääketieteen lisensiaatti) degree. There is an intermediate title (but not an academic degree) oflääketieteen kandidaatti,and no master's degree.

Polytechnic degrees are considered bachelor's degrees in international use. In domestic use, bachelors transferring from polytechnics to universities may be required to amass a maximum of 60 ECTS credits of additional studies before beginning master's-level studies. In conjunction with the Bologna Process, polytechnics have the right to award master's degrees.

France

edit
See also:Education in France

In France thebaccalauréat,awarded at the end of secondary education, allows students to enter university. Before theLMD reformamid the 2000s which implemented the Bologna Process, it was followed by a two-yearDiplôme d'études universitaires générales(DEUG) and a third-year Licence (the equivalent of a UK bachelor's degree).

Students could then pursue a Maîtrise, a one-year research degree which could be followed by a one-year vocational degree (theDiplôme d'études supérieures spécialiséesor DESS) or research degree (theDiplôme d'études approfondies,orDEA). The DEA, preparation for a doctorate, was equivalent to theM. Phil.Students could then pursue adoctorat(PhD), which took at least three years.

The DESS was created in 1975 for students who completed four-year degrees. Intended as a doctorate with a more practical approach than research, it included the production of a 120-page paper which was defended to a jury of three international specialists in the field. The mini-thesis was kept in the libraries of the university issuing the DESS, unlike a PhD dissertation (distributed by its author to every French university library).

Higher education in France is also provided by non-university institutions dedicated to specific subjects. TheDiplôme d'ingénieur(engineering diploma) is awarded to students after five years of study in state-recognizedÉcoles d'ingénieurs,particularly theGrandes Écolessuch asMines,CentraleandENAC.

Although thebaccalauréatanddoctoratare unchanged in the Bologna system (known in France as LMD reform), theDEUGandlicencehave been merged into a three-year Licence. The Maîtrise, DESS and DEA have been combined into a two-year master's degree, which can be work- (master professionnel) or research-oriented (master recherche). TheDiplôme d'ingénieurdegree is still separate from a university degree, but holders may legally claim a master's degree as well.[19]

Strikes occurred in 2002 and 2003[20]and 2007[21]protesting LMD reform, focusing more on under-funding of French universities since May 1968 than on the Bologna Process. Although the two major student organisations object to some aspects of its application to the French system, they generally welcome the European process.

Georgia

edit
See also:Education in Georgia (country)

AlthoughGeorgiajoined the Bologna Process in 2005 at the Bergen summit, steps towards the establishment of the European Higher Education Area were completed earlier. Since the end of the 1990s, manyGeorgian universities(mostly private) have introduced limited educational programs allowing students to graduate with abachelor's degree(four years) and earn a master's degree (one to two years) while preserving the old five-to-six-year scheme. During the Soviet era, the only degree was the discontinued Specialist.

Cycles of higher education are divided into first (bachelor's degree with 240credits), second (master's degree, 120 credits) and third (doctorate, 180 credits). Human and veterinary medicine and dentistry (300–360 credits) are integrated programs with a qualification equal to a master's degree.[22]

Greece

edit
Main article:Education in Greece

Greece joined the Bologna Process in 1999. Since 2007, more-intensive steps towards the establishment of the European Higher Education Area were completed.

Hungary

edit
See also:Education in Hungary

InHungary,the Bologna system applies to those who began their university education in or after September 2006. One hundred and eight majors were available for selection (compared with over 400 in 2005), of which six are exempt from the bachelor's-master's division: law, human and veterinary medicine, dentistry, pharmacy and architecture.

According to an online poll[23]by the National Tertiary Education Information Centre, 65 percent of respondents thought it unnecessary to adopt the system. The new system provides less of a guarantee that students will obtain a master's degree, because many will complete their education after the three-year bachelor's degree. Students are expected to study more unrelated subjects during the first three years, due to the smaller number of majors.[24]

Iceland

edit
See also:Education in Iceland

InIceland,bachelor's degrees are usually three years in duration;[25]master's degrees are two years, and doctoral degrees range from three to six years.[26]

Ireland

edit
See also:Education in the Republic of Ireland

InIreland,bachelor's degrees are commonly three to four years in duration; master's and doctoral degrees are basically similar to those in the UK. Bachelor's degrees are first-cycle qualifications. Except for theMAat theTrinity College Dublin,a master's degree is always a postgraduate degree (teaching or research). The generic outcomes for Irish degrees are laid out in the 2003 National Framework of Qualifications. In 2006, Ireland was the first country to verify the compatibility of its national framework with that of the EHEA.[27]

Italy

edit
See also:Education in Italy

Italyfits the framework since its 1999 adoption of the 3+2 system. The first degree is theLaureatriennale,which may be obtained after three years of study. Selected students may then complete their studies with two additional years of specialization leading to theLaurea Magistrale.

The Laurea corresponds to a bachelor's degree; the Laurea Magistrale, corresponding to a master's degree, grants access to third-cycle programmes (post-MA degrees, doctorates or specialized schools) lasting two to five years (completing a PhD usually takes three years). A five-year degree, Laurea Magistrale a Ciclo Unico (Single-cycle Master's Degree) is awarded in law (Giurisprudenza), in Primary teacher education (Scienze della Formazione Primaria), in Architecture (Architettura), in Pharmacy (Farmacia) and Pharmaceutical Sciences (Chimica e Tecnologia Farmaceutiche), as well as in visual arts (Accademia di Belle Arti) and music (Conservatorio di Musica). A six-year degree, Laurea Magistrale a Ciclo Unico (Single-cycle Master's Degree) is awarded in medicine (Medicina) and dentistry (Odontoiatria). The title for BA and BS undergraduate students isDottoreand for MA, MFA, MSc, MD and MEd graduate studentsDottore magistrale(abbreviatedDott.,Dott.ssaorDr.). This should not be confused with PhD and post-MA graduates, whose title isDottore di Ricerca(Research Doctor).

The Italian system has two types of postgraduate degree (called "Master", not to be confused with the master's degree).Laurea Magistrale(120 ECTS) allows access to third-cycle programmes, andMaster universitario(at least 60 ECTS) may be divided into first- (second cycle) and second-level master's degrees (third cycle). A first-level master's degree is accessible by a first-cycle degree and "does not allow access to PhD and to 3rd cycle programmes, since this type of course does not belong to the general requirements established at national level, but it is offered under the autonomous responsibility of each university".[28]

Kazakhstan

edit

Kazakhstan has been a full member of the Bologna Process and European Higher Education Area since 2010.[29]

Netherlands

edit
See also:Education in the NetherlandsandAcademic degree § Netherlands

TheNetherlandsdifferentiates between HBO (university of applied sciences) and WO (scientific education or research universities). WO and HBO have adopted the bachelor's-master's system.[30]It generally requires three (WO) or four (HBO) years of education to obtain a bachelor's degree; graduates may then apply for a master's program at a university, which generally require one to two years to complete. An HBO bachelor graduate may have to pass one year of pre-master's education to bridge the gap between their HBO study and (research-oriented) WO study to be admitted to a WO Master's programme, which may grant degrees such as MA, MSc and LLM.[31]There are also HBO master's studies, and HBOs are the only institutions offering associate degrees. A masters degree is the default (legal) requirement to enter a PhD program in the Netherlands. Dispensation can be granted on an individual base, judged by a special committee. With an HBO master's degree, it is also possible to follow a professional doctorate at a university of applied sciences.

Portugal

edit
See also:Higher education in Portugal

Due to the Bologna Process, in 2005 newlicenciatura(licentiate) degrees were organized atuniversity and polytechnic institutions of Portugal.Previously a four- to six-year programme, equivalent to 300 ECTS, it is now a three-year first cycle and the only requirement for the two-year second cycle which awards a master's degree. Some Bologna courses are integrated five- or six-year programmes awarding a joint master's degree, a common practice in medicine. In engineering, despite the use of two cycles, an engineer may be licensed only after obtaining a master's degree. Master's degrees attained after five or six years of study correspond to the old undergraduate degrees known aslicenciatura.The newlicenciatura,obtained after three years of study, corresponds to the discontinuedbacharelatoawarded by polytechnics from the 1970s to the early 2000s (roughly equivalent to an extendedassociate degree). Old and new master's degrees are the first graduate degree before a doctorate, and the old and newlicenciaturaare undergraduate degrees.

Thelicenciaturadegree (a four- to six-year course) was required for applicants who wished to undertake the old master's and doctoral programmes, but admission was reserved for those with alicenciaturadegree with a grade above 14 (out of 20). After the changes introduced by the Bologna Process, the master's degree is conferred at the end of a programme roughly equivalent in time to many oldlicenciaturaprogrammes. The process was developed to improve the education system to one based on the development of competency rather than the transmission of knowledge. Its goal was the development of a system of easily comparable degrees to simplify the comparison of qualifications across Europe. Its flexibility and transparency is intended to enable wider recognition of student qualifications, facilitating movement around a European Higher Education Area based on two main cycles (undergraduate and graduate) and providing third-cycle degrees for doctoral candidates.

Russia

edit
See also:Education in Russia

TheRussianhigher education framework was basically incompatible with the process. The generic, lowest degree in all universities since the Soviet era is theSpecialist,which can be obtained after five to six years of study. Since the mid-1990s, many universities have introduced limited programmes allowing students to graduate with a bachelor's degree in four years and a master's degree in an additional one to two years while preserving the old system.

After accession to the Bologna process happened in 2003,[32]in October 2007, Russia moved to two-tier education in line with the Bologna Process.[33]Universities inserted a BSc diploma in the middle of their standard specialist programmes, but the transition to MS qualification has not been completed.

Although Specialists and masters are eligible for doctoral programmes (Aspirantura), bachelors are not; the Specialist degree is being discontinued. In most universities bachelor's- and master's-degree education is free of charge, although some state and private universities charge for one or both.[34][35][better source needed][when?]The labour market does not yet understand BSc diplomas, but some universities made the program similar to classical education and the MS stage remains mandatory for most graduates.[36]

Sweden

edit
See also:Education in SwedenandAcademic grading in Sweden

A bill proposing new regulations in the field of Higher Education was presented to Parliament in 2005, and the new system came into force in July 2007. The new system of degrees will have two degrees, of different lengths, in each cycle.

Cycle Swedish English Length (undergraduate) Length (postgraduate)
1 Högskoleexamen University diploma 2 years n/a
1 Kandidatexamen Bachelor's degree 3 years n/a
2 Magisterexamen Magister's degree, 1 year (a.k.a. "Swedish master's degree" ) 4 years Kandidatexamen+ 1 year
2 Masterexamen Master's degree, 2 years 5 years Kandidatexamen+ 2 yearsorMagisterexamen+ 1 year
3 Licentiatexamen Licentiate n/a Magisterexamenor higher + 2 years
3 Doktorsexamen Doctorate n/a Magisterexamenor higher + 4 years

Students may not always be offered all the combinations above to obtain a degree. Thehögskoleexamenis usually not offered, and many schools require students to obtain thekandidatexamenbefore obtaining amagisterexamenormasterexamen.Most third-cycle programmes require at least amagisterexamen,although the legal minimal requirement is either a degree from the second cycle or four years of finished courses, where at least one year is second cycle.

In July 2007 a new system of credits, compatible with the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System, was introduced in which one credit (högskolepoäng) in the new system corresponds to one ECTS credit and two-thirds of a credit in the old system (poäng).

Some Swedish universities have introduced the ECTS standard grading scale for all students, and others will use it only for international students. Sincecriterion-referenced gradingis used instead ofrelative gradingin the Swedish educational system, the 10-, 25-, 30-, 25- and 10-percent distribution of students among A, B, C, D and E will not be done. Some universities only give Fail or Pass grades (F or P) for certain courses (such as internship and thesis projects) or assignments, such as laboratory exercises.

Seminars

edit

Several Bologna Process seminars have been held. The first devoted to a singleacademic discipline,Chemistry Studies in the European Higher Education Area (which approvedEurobachelor), was held in June 2004 inDresden.[37]
