Many, when considering higher education and university, do not realize that the Ukraine has one of the best education systems in the world.
Offering a full selection of both academic and technical education options, the Ukraine University system has something for everyone. “We are proud of our education system and the opportunities we can provide. If you are interested in humanities, medicine, engineering or fish processing, we have a program to meet your specific needs,” said Nikolay Archak of Study in Ukraine.
All courses taught in the Ukraine are recognized globally, and the medical education system is one of the finest in the world. Students who study medicine work in hospitals and practices across the world with the same rights as any physician. Read more...

Rindfleischetikettierungs-überwachungsaufgaben-übertragungsgesetz

By William Germano. Sad news from Germany: the British Telegraph reported this week that the Germans are decommissioning what seems to have been the language’s longest word, the little mouthful that is the title of my post today. The term, which the Telegraph translates as “law delegating beef label monitoring,” apparently arose during the 1990s in response to bovine spongiform encephalopathy. Spawned by a crisis, the R-word may now be the first linguistic fatality attributable to mad cow disease. Read more...

Kleine EU-Staaten machen gegen studentische Mobilität mobil

Österreich will den Zustrom deutscher Studenten zügeln. Belgien klagt über Franzosen. Wie sehr leiden die Universitäten wirklich unter den ausländischen Studenten?
"Österreich schmiedet Allianz gegen Deutsche Studenten", titelt Spiegel Online. "Piefke-Alarm", schreibt die Süddeutsche Zeitung. Grund dafür ist eine Äußerung des österreichischen Wissenschaftsministers Karlheinz Töchterle, er wolle einheimische Bewerber an den Universitäten bevorzugen. Der Zustrom deutscher Studenten führe zu einer "Schieflage" an manchen Universitäten. Mehr...

Europa geizt bei den Unis

Viele europäische Länder kürzen ihre Hochschuletats. Vor allem sparen sie bei der Lehre. Nicht nur die Krisenstaaten streichen Geld. Die Universitäten Europas gleichen einer Zweiklassengesellschaft. Auf der einen Seite die Hochschulen in einigen wenigen Ländern, die trotz der Finanzkrise in den letzten Jahren mehr Geld bekommen haben. Auf der anderen Seite die vielen Unis, deren staatliche Zuschüsse teils radikal zusammengestrichen wurden. Dieses Bild zeichnet ein aktueller Bericht der Europäischen Universitätsvereinigung (EUA). "Die Kluft zwischen den Universitäten in Europa wächst immer mehr", lautet das Fazit. Mehr...

Milliarden gegen überfüllte Hörsäle

In Deutschland gibt es so viele Studenten wie nie. Zusätzliche Milliarden von Bund und Ländern sollen die Überlastung der Unis mildern. Doch das größte Problem bleibt. Längst ist es üblich, Erstsemester mit Naturgewalten zu vergleichen. Wellen von ihnen schwappen in die Unis, sie stürmen auf die Campusse und fluten die Hörsäle. In den Jahren 2006 bis 2011 stieg die Zahl der Studienanfänger von 345.000 auf fast 520.000. Dafür gibt es mehrere Gründe: die doppelten Klassen aus G8- und G9-Abiturienten, geburtenstarke Jahrgänge und die Aussetzung der Wehrpflicht. Mehr...

Comprehensive school pupils do better at university, two new studies confirm

By Julie Henry. Students from state schools outperform private ones admitted with same A-level grades, according to Cardiff and Oxford Brookes research. Two studies showing state school pupils do better at university than those from private schools will strengthen demands for admissions tutors to give priority to applicants from comprehensives. The findings, from two separate universities, reveal that students from state schools gained better degrees than independently educated candidates with the same A-level grades. Read more...

Scottish universities social mix ‘changed little’

By Chris Marshall. ACCESS to Scotland’s universities remains as socially unequal as it was in the mid-1990s, despite the scrapping of tuition fees and attempts to encourage more working-class students, a major study has found.
Research by Edinburgh University found the composition of students by social class had “changed little” across the UK, regardless of whether or not fees were charged.
The analysis of university application figures between 1996 and 2010 showed that, while devolution had led to diverging policies on higher education, there had been a limited impact, with national differences in tuition fees failing to alter social inequalities. Read more...

Erasmus faces demand and management problems – LERU

http://enews.ksu.edu.sa/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/UWN.jpg

By David Haworth. One of the world’s most successful student exchange programmes found itself under fire at a recent conference on international curricula in Brussels. Erasmus, which is responsible for placing some 230,000 students abroad each year, was said to be reaching its limits and the supply of applicants has stopped growing. Presenting a paper on “International Curricula and Student Mobility” for the League of European Research Universities, LERU, Professor Bart De Moor – vice-rector for international policy at Belgian’s Katholieke Universiteit Leuven – said that although Erasmus was much envied in the United States and China, it was blighted by huge administrative costs and a lack of personnel to assure proper management.
