HIGHER EDUCATION IN REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA: CHALLENGES AND PERSPECTIVES

Summary/Abstract: Higher education policies in the last two decades are related to the wider European trends for reforms in this social sphere. The Bologna reforms started as an idea to create inclusive higher education where mobility of study programs, students and academic staff can provide more quality and practical utilization of knowledge. In Republic of Macedonia this process was upgraded with the tendency for dispersion of higher education programs.
