9 France Adapts to the Bologna Process
10 France adapts to the Bologna Process Before and after at a glance: the impact of Bologna on the French higher education degree structure Positive outcomes prompted by Bologna on the French higher education system Bologna: a prelude to the wave of reforms and investments led by the French government since 2007 AACRAO Philadelphia 2012 Session ID: ###
11 The context: the French two-track system University system: - 83 public universities (70% of the student body) - Heavily funded by the French public authorities (local and national government) - Award national diplomas - Open to every French baccalauréat holder (high school termination exam). Grandes écoles system: - More than 200 schools, public or private - A majority of engineering schools and business schools - Tuition fees vary - Highly selective entrance exam after the baccalauréat + two years of preparatory classes.
12 +8 The French higher education degree structure DOCTORATE DOCTORATE DOCTORATE DEA Maîtrise Licence DEUG DESS Grandes Ecoles CPGE University «Grande Ecole» Lycée Grandes Ecoles CPGE Master 2 Master 2 P R Master 1 Licence 3 Licence 2 Licence Before Bologna After Bologna ECTS
13 Positive outcomes prompted by Bologna on the French higher education system Convergence with the European system: - more clarity and more compatibility at the European level; - better recognition at the international level in general. Convergence within the French system: - clearer regimen of equivalences between Universities and grandes écoles; - better transferability within the twotrack system and more bridges between institutions (e.g. joint curricula; joint degrees).
14 Positive outcomes prompted by Bologna on the French higher education system A cultural shock boosting the internationalization of French institutions Reform of curriculum e.g. French engineering schools; increase of courses and programs taught in English; French degrees in English. Development of international affairs offices; bilingual French- English communication materials; increase of exchange programs and/or joint degrees with foreign universities (EU and non EU).
15 Positive outcomes prompted by Bologna on the French higher education system Increase of French mobility abroad and student mobility to France: France : # 2 sending country for Erasmus students; # 2 hosting country Erasmus student mobility. Between 1998 and 2010, French institutions have seen an increase of 86% increase of their international student body.
16 Bologna : a prelude to the wave of reforms and investments led by the French government since 2007 Objectives To upgrade France s higher education and research systems, to boost France s attractiveness, and to raise its profile on the international scene. Changes Two major and complementary sets of changes implemented by the government: - Institutional reforms - Unprecedented flow of public investment
17 Bologna : a prelude to the wave of reforms and investments led by the French government since 2007 Institutional reforms Most notably, the Law on University Autonomy and Responsibility (2007) => major impact on universities governance. Incentives for institutions (universities or grandes écoles) to gather together under the umbrella of higher education and research clusters.
18 Bologna : a prelude to the wave of reforms and investments led by the French government since 2007 Unprecedented flow of public investment: in 2008, 1.8 billion devoted to upgrade academic buildings and other facilities (classrooms, labs and libraries, dorms, sports facilities). in 2010, launch of the Investing in the Future funding program: 19 out of 35 billion earmarked to French higher education and research.
19 France As the case of France illustrates, the Bologna Process cannot be limited to the adoption of a new degreecycle throughout the European area. It has had far-reaching effects in the very structure of the French national higher education system, and it has prompted positive externalities within the system itself.

20 U. S. Reacts to the Bologna Process
21 Very limited knowledge and interest What is Bologna? wait and see attitude Imperfect and simplistic understanding fairly limited to admission and credential evaluation communities viewed Europe as adopting a U.S. model of tertiary education saw Bologna as a product rather than a process concern with three-year undergraduate degrees appreciation of tools ECTS and Diploma Supplements 2007 to present Changing knowledge base and recognition of competitive factors recognition of EHEA reforms advancing a global discussion
22 European Attractiveness as a Study Destination Innovative, multilateral academic exchange schemes Attractive research components for students Growth in number of programs offered in English Relative costs Shorter time to degree Promotion of educational and employment mobility within Europe
23 EHEA encompasses 47 countries in the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) In Over 65,000 degree-seeking EHEA students in the U.S. 32,400 undergraduate (11% of total international undergrads) 32,600 graduate (11% of total international graduate students) 13,800 non-degree (24% of total international non-degrees) Turkey, Germany, U.K., France and Russia among the top 25 sending countries in world
24 Europe remains the leading host region for U.S. students studying abroad, with 53.5% of the total

30 Reception of Three-Year Bologna Compliant Degrees
31 Evolving Traditional focus on degree equivalency frequently determined by length of undergraduate program combination of secondary and post-secondary study Discussion moving from degree equivalency and degree comparability to degree compatibility and preparation
32 Council of Graduate Schools: Findings on Practices in 2005 and Acceptance of 4 year degree only 29% 18% Provisional acceptance of 3 year degree 9% 4% Evaluation of course work for equivalency using a variety of measures Determination of competency to succeed in U.S. graduate program 40% 49% 22% 29% Taken from CGS International Graduate Admission Survey II and III
33 IIE s Fall 2008 Snapshot of Doctoralgranting Institutions Have an official policy regarding 3-year Bologna compliant degrees 53.4% yes 46.6% no YES 26% equivalent 35% determination varies by department 26% other 13% not equivalent NO 39% may still be considered for regular admission 28% conditional 18% other 15% not considered Respondents who specifically indicated that Bologna had influenced their admissions process tended to say that our focus has shifted from degree equivalency to academic readiness or preparedness.
34 NAGAP 2009 SURVEY ON BOLOGNA AND THREE-YEAR DEGREES 69% of respondents do not have a policy for Bologna degrees 87% of the universities that have a policy indicate it was developed by the graduate school/graduate council Bologna Compliant 74 % of respondents accept Bologna degrees on a case-by-case basis. Primary reasons for the exception are the applicant holds another graduate/ professional degree (79%), has high test scores (46%), or has strong letters of recommendation (29%) Other Three-year Undergraduate Degrees 53% of respondents accept other 3- year degrees on a case-by-case basis. Primary reasons for the exception are the applicant holds another graduate/ professional degree (93%), has high test scores (40%), or Has strong letters of recommendation (29%) November 2009 survey on Bologna and 3-year degrees conducted by the National Association of Graduate Admissions Professionals (NAGAP) 124 respondents from membership of 1400.
35 Three Year Degree Issues Generally the degree holders are very qualified to study at the graduate level in that major. Faculty want them because they ARE qualified and because they provide financial resources and a highly competent work force (TA s, RA s, lab assistants). Foreign faculty have pre-conceived notions of the strength of the educational system of that country and exert pressure.
36 In Defense of the 4-year Degree The international evaluation field prefers a quantitative comparison (4 yrs is 4 yrs) No single European country sends a significant % of applicants to the USA for degrees (exchange is a different issue) Equity: Why is a European 3-year degree OK but an Indian one is not? Are we being fair to the US 4-year grad?
37 Factors that MIGHT lead to 3-year degree acceptance Degree is in same or similar field Grad Department is willing to consider Degree awarded by a similar institution Degree content has been vetted by faculty If professional degree, allows for the same outcome as the US comparable degree 3-year degree leads to advanced degrees Lack of general education not a concern
38 Answers to Equity Concerns Europeans have a degree that leads to graduate study in home country and more major hours than a U.S. junior Bologna quality assurance mechanisms may hold the key to a differential approach to these 3-year degrees as opposed to those in other countries like India
39 Bologna and the Future Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) surveys indicate a trend toward greater acceptance among US graduate schools Questions persist, however, regarding full implementation (2010) and full acceptance in Europe by the some sectors Quality assurance sounds reassuring but it is still amorphous at this point
40 Conclusion UT-Austin continues to require a four year degree (or 13+3 variant) UT-Austin will continue to monitor progress in the Bologna Process and contemplate a possible modified acceptance policy. What will YOU do?
