Ulrich Teichler (40min): Comments: Higher Education in Europe

• Based primarily on my 2015 in the Bologna-book of 2015 edited by Curaj et al. I will add two remarks:
  – Not very much research on HE outside the usual universities   and not much research facilities/researchers located at UAS.
  – Much ”research” undertaken by adminstraters or consultants   – a challenge for academic higher education research.
