Mr. Genc POLLO Minister of Education and Science, Republic of Albania CREATING A VISION OF HIGHER EDUCATION FOR A COUNTRY IN TRANSITION Rruga: “Durrësit”, nr.23, AL-TIRANË, www.mash.gov.al
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND PLANS • New Law on HE • Strategy of HE and Research • Action Plan • Follow-up with possible amendments to Law.
Creating a Vision of HE for a country in transition WHAT WE HAD TO FACE • System was not sufficiently responsive • System was too homogeneous, little room for different missions, roles, variation and flexibility • Research used to be out of universities; • Scarce professional orientation, lack of sub-degrees • Insufficient autonomy • Limited analytical capacities in the Ministry of Education
Creating a Vision of HE for a country in transition WHAT WE HAVE STARTED Focusing on Bologna Process • market orientation study programs • knowledge based society • involving wide base of stakeholders • managing the process and reforms (Law, Strategy, Action Plan, Ministry capacities, intensive workgroups)
Creating a Vision of HE for a country in transition • Establishing the National Qualification Framework • Curricula development • recognition, flexibility of the system, mobility • reforming R&D; University integration • improving teaching & learning Quality • Improving University governance, internal management
