New Perspectives for Master Study Programmes in Europe

Bologna Seminar - New Perspectives for Master Study Programmes in Europe, Berlin, Germany (25-26 October 2011). The German Rectors’ Conference (HRK) and its project nexus are jointly organising the Bologna Seminar “New Perspectives for Master Study Programmes in Europe. Implementing the Second Cycle of Bologna – A European Success story?" which will take place from 25-26 October 2011 in Berlin, Germany.
In preparation for the ministerial conference in Bucharest in 2012, the Bologna Seminar seeks to focus on the current state of Master programmes in the European Higher Education Area. New developments for orientation and transparency on the rapidly increasing “Master-market” such as the marketing of Master degree programmes, recruitment of students, and implementation of lifelong learning will be discussed.
EUA Board Member and President of HRK, Dr Margret Wintermantel and EUA’s Senior Adviser, Howard Davies, will be speaking at the event. EUA’s Head of Unit, Michael Gaebel will also chair a workshop on “How to match Students and Programmes”. As part of the seminar, there is a call for posters which should relate to one of the three criteria: structure, target groups or recruitment strategies and discuss individual perspectives such as the challenges and opportunities faced and solutions to them.
