Bologna Process as Viewed in Tradition of USA Higher Eduaction

Summary/Abstract: This paper is discussing the perceptions of the Bologna Process within the higher education in United States, based on analysis of relevant American authors (Paul Gaston, Clifford Adelman and others). Such works offer to a broad academic audience in the U.S. an analysis of everything what was done by the European higher educational authorities, academic leaders, teachers and students that was achieved during the first and early second decade of reform, particularly in terms of challenging issues: responsibility, quality assurance, ECTS, learning outcomes, mobility etc. American higher education is getting wider informed about the Bologna Process in effort to analyze what the U.S. higher education can learn from the European reforms, and where should start a possibly productive dialogue between the U.S. educators and Bologna participants. There were a number of conferences and intensive discussions on the Bologna Process in the United States. In addition, a large project called "Tuning Project" within the Lumina Foundation framework is carried out in three Federal States in the field of higher education - Indiana, Minnesota and Utah that have established curricula in order to investigate the Bologna "Tuning" Process and to determine shapes and extents of their potential within the USA context.
