RSS Feed "Being Present in the World": A Conversation With Professor Jose Marques dos Santos

"I think that the Bologna effort will have been worthwhile—very worthwhile. To create a European system of higher education, people will need to be able to understand the nature of academic programs across borders and be able to assess the quality of different programs across borders. I suspect that the landscape of European higher education will be more comprehensible in ten years than it is today and that it will be much stronger and more competitive than it is today. Of course, nationalism and chauvinism stand in the way of this. Too often universities have trouble cooperating even with other universities that are their neighbors."
