10. Whychangeto a Police University? Advantages: • Higher standard of training / education and advanced training • Establishment and promotion of a „Police Science“ • More police research • Recruitment of personel from outside the Police • Catch up with international development • Academic degree for future senior police officers • Better standing / higher status for senior police officers

11. Whychangeto a Police University? Disadvantages / risks – as seen by critics: • Changing role of police? • Less practice orientation - too much (academic) theory? • Less practical competencies of graduates? • Higher costs? • Independency of professors – academic freedom? • Less influence of ministries of interior on police training and education?

12. Decisionofthe Ministers ofInterior in 1998 • Preconditions: • Quality improvement! • No more costs, no higher budget! • Keep grounded in police reality! • Keep influence of Ministers of Interior on main issues of the new university!
