| This booklet that has caught your attention contains basic information about the AHEAD project sponsored by the EU’s TEMPUS grant. This project was carried out between University of Zagreb (and other Croatian partners) and four EU-based universities. The project was very ambitious and it is my pleasure to state that the great majority of the objectives were carried out with high quality during the 3 years project time span. The main results of the AHEAD project can be found in this booklet, and I would like to mention just a few of them: • A new MBA training started in Zagreb with international recognition • 61 subjects of 3 BSc/MSc trainings were reviewed and modified, • a study was created in order to determine the short – and long – term expert demand... |

| Nowadays, dropping out in B.Sc. courses practically occurs in all Universities of the contemporary world. Undergraduate student withdraw could means several losses as, to the student, not to graduate, to the teacher, for not accomplishing his goal as educator, to the university, for not attending its mission, to the society, economic and social losses and also to the family for unfulfilling the dreams. The objective of this research is to present a quantitative study on the dropping out rate in the Agricultural Engineering B.Sc. program (BSAGENG) at State University of Campinas (UNICAMP), seeking to contribute to the understanding of this issue. It has been determined the dropping out rate from 1995 to 2006 based on the university official data, by... |

| Brazilian higher education has doubled its size in the 1990s, going from 1.5 million to more than 3 million students in the period. This expansion was mostly due to the growth of private education, which, in 2002, accounted for about two thirds of the enrollment. Is expansion making higher education more accessible to persons coming from the poorer segments of society? Is the quality of higher education suffering by the speed of this expansion? Is Brazil educating enough qualified persons to attend to the country's needs to participate in the new, knowledge-intensive and global economy? What public policies should be implemented, in order to foster the values of social equity and relevance? What are the policy implications of these developments? This... |

| This report summarizes major findings of a study carried out on the structure of Idaho's labor market in relation to higher education. Changes in the types of jobs available, both in terms of industries and occupations, greatly affect the relationship of higher education to the labor market. The nation-wide move from a manufacturing-oriented economy towards an information-based economy has led to a marked increase in the number of jobs requiring a college education. The following information documents that trend and includes projections made for the year 2005. The focus is on future demand and associated earnings premiums for college educated labor force in Idaho. |

| Do cost considerations justify the current structure of production of extension services in which one or more providers exists in virtually all of the contiguous U.S. states? Provision of extension services has sizable cost implications for the host institutions. Yet, to our knowledge, there has been virtually no analysis of the impact of extension on higher education costs. Using academic year 1995-1996 data, we estimate a multiproduct cost function for 1,445 public institutions of higher education in the United States, including 65 that provide extension services. We find evidence of significant economies of scale with respect to the provision of extension services but no evidence of significant economies of scope between the provision of extension... |

| Many higher education institutions use admission criteria to match students with the educational requirements of the institution, thereby increasing the level of success of their students and allocating limited enrollment space in some cases. This study uses two different approaches to identify the affect students’ background characteristics have on first year cumulative GPA, and whether differences exist in the impact of high school grades on success in their first year in college between high schools in the state of Washington. Results show that students’ particular high schools systematically perform better or worse than the model predicts, holding the other characteristics of the students constant including their high school GPA. This suggests the... |

| A társadalom helyzete gazdasági teljesítőképességén nyugszik. Ezért olyan érdekrendszer szükséges, amely minden szinten – állami irányítás, intézmény, egyén, gazdasági, társadalmi szervezetek stb. – megkívánja a konstruktív hozzáállást. Kitől várhatja az agrártársadalom a megváltó ötleteket, ha nem az egyetemektől? Ahhoz viszont, hogy a szakemberek meg tudjanak felelni a holnap elvárásainak, az egyetemi képzést már ma korszerűsíteni, nemzetközi színvonalúvá szükséges tenni. A tényleges társadalmi igényeknek megfelelő szakember-kibocsátó kapacitás és a hatékonyságot szolgáló intézményi szerkezet kialakítása indokolt. Természetesen folytatható az elnapolási gyakorlat is, csakhogy a jelen tevékenysége adottságként jelentkezik már a közeljövőben. Nem... |

| Based on the results from this study our conclusions refer to the following ideas: The economic degree still is the first choice for enrollment in the higher education. Students believe that a diploma achieved in a economic faculty could help them in finding a good job. The competition in labor force market increasing and give advantages to employers in attracting good capacities and knowledge. Students believe that a work experience along the period of higher education process could be a good start for being employed. The most important weaknesses identified by graduates are: tools and methods of teaching process and the content of textbooks or study materials. The students appreciate as important for higher education system the novelty of the knowledge... |
