National issues – international trends
Conference papers

March, 2012
At
the beginning of the 21st century it became obvious that higher
education has to reformulate its mission to be accepted by the
stakeholders with new expectations. New types of collaboration are
needed to involve all interested parties. Higher education has to be
transparent and diverse to meet the complex needs of the society. The
Center for International Higher Education Studies discussed these topics
in three sections of the conference entitled “National debates –
international trends” on 25 January, 2012.
The first
section dealt with the topic of funding higher education. Solutions for
financing the sector properly can contribute to providing efficient
higher education services. The main topic of the second section was the
diversification of the institutional mission statements, discussing
national and international tendencies. The issue of internationalization
has got relatively less attention on the strategic documents of higher
education; however, it has to be a point of departure to get better
positions in the global academic and research competition. The third
session focused on internationalization of higher education.
