Description
Summary:The role of universities in Europe was continuously changing during their eight hundred years history. In the middle ages they were places where theological and philosophical ideas were conserved for new and new generations of scholars. Later some basic types of universities formed out: in British private institutions education of gentlemen was the most important, in the French state-owned high-schools the training of state officers was in the focus, while in Germany training and research went hand in hand. In modern European universities masstraining became the most important function as more and more people entered higher education due to the formation of knowledge society, and (especially basic) research lost its former importance. At the end of the 20th century leaders and experts of the European Union still thought mass-training to be the basic challenge of "Europe of Knowledge" and European higher education. This attitude is clearly expressed in the Bologna Declaration and in the Lisbon Agenda. But some years ago they have realised that research also plays an important role in the competitiveness of Europe, just like universities (by both of their basic function: education and research) have a crucial part in the regional and local development.
