Third International Staff week
The New Agenda of the European Higher Education Institutions
13-17.06.2016
The development of new technologies, the globalization of economy and culture, the competition on the market of educational services, the multiculturalism and cosmopolitanism of human society as well the ever growing human necessity for mobility outline the new agenda of the higher education institutions in Europe where modernization and internationalization have no other alternative.
At these conditions the collaboration, the common efforts and the exchange of good practices between universities in Europe have key influence for acquiring adequate education, meeting the high quality standards and the requirements of the European labour market.
In the context of the new agenda for European universities, the Third international staff week organized by the University of Ruse, will provide a forum for exchange of views between the partner universities in the following areas:
• Good practices for internationalization of higher education;
• Educational needs of the digital students generation;
• Challenges for Erasmus + Programme.
We expect interested participants from partner universities to take part in the week, and we are committed to offer them interesting opportunities for exchange of experience, friendly and relaxing atmosphere and attractive cultural program.
