The EU contribution to the Bologna Process
This brochure highlights the contribution of EU policies and programmes to the success of the Bologna process in the areas of:
- lifelong learning;
- student-centred learning;
- quality assurance;
- transparency;
- mobility;
- recognition and international openness.
The text notably refers to initiatives supported under the Erasmus, the Tempus and the Erasmus Mundus programmes. However, Bologna reforms may also be supported through the 7th EU Framework Programme for Research, the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme, as well as via the Structural Funds and EIB loans.
The MODERN project has been chosen as example for governance (page 25), out of the many recent reform projects supported by the European Commission under the Erasmus, Erasmus Mundus and Tempus programmes.
