SEP 20, 2010
Physics Today
Chronicle of Higher Education : An over-arching ideal of the European Union is that citizens of the union’s 27 member countries have the freedom to live, learn, and work anywhere within the union’s borders. As the Chronicle‘s Aisha Labi reports, progress toward one aspect of that ideal—harmonizing the EU’s higher-education system—has bogged down. In particular, the 11-year-old Bologna Process has not yet led to significant mobility of students within the EU or to significant harmonization across the EU of the various kinds of university degree.
