Abstract

This paper focuses on assessing the past 20 years of Bologna Process and the effects and outcomes it had on the quality culture and mindsets of higher institutions of educations (HIE) and their leaders and stakeholders. Bologna Process has been an unprecedented project that aims at channeling the European highest standards of education across the continent. It created a unique scientific and research space that promotes and encourages mutual research and educational cooperation, student and professors exchange, collaborative projects, initiatives, and more. The European Commission is also an actor and full member of the Bologna Process because of its EU-centered interests. Our results show that although huge work has been done in the last 20 years since the Bologna process started there are still some discrepancies and drawbacks the member State will have to overcome. We concluded that most of the problems identified are systematic and, in some cases, cannot be solved without severe and rigid structural reforms and changes in the national legislation.
