Question
I am interested in any forms of promotion of higher education. Do you notice any market mechanisms that occure in universities? What faculties/ departments are doing to promote their offer and attract new students? Suggestions and bibliography tips welcome ;)
Question
I have a question to representatives of spanish academic staff: why the spanish Ministerio de Educación, Cultura y Deporte decided to change model of university studies ? As far as I know five years ago there was a change of degree structure (into 4 years Grado + 1 year Master), now step back: 3+2? What are the substantive grounds (apart internationalization - as wrote in the Real Decreto 43/2015) ? As understood form Real Decreto 43/2015, the institution can decide what to offer: 4+1 or 3+2?
Anybody can clear it a bit more for me?
