CIHES Working Paper No.4.
‘Hungarian Higher Education 2009’
Conference documents
Editors: József Berács, Ildikó Hrubos, József Temesi
March, 2010
The presentations
are covering three main topics, offering the opportunity to take into
consideration the last decade, not only the last year. The higher
education performance parameters are starting points of the
competitiveness and of the university funding, which is managed through a
contractual system according to the new Higher Education Act. There is
no doubt, that the most sensation of the year was the process of
categorizing the universities to “research-university” or “university of
excellence” status, which was based on scientometric methods too, but
did not satisfied the international standards required by presenters.
Without long term governmental strategy of higher education, the role of
institutional strategies become more important, which were discussed by
active and emeritus rectors, among them the rector of Babes-Bolyai
University.
