  1. Jo Ritzen, Chair EEU, Professor Maastricht University, Senior Policy Adviser IZA Conference, University Policy for Strengthening Competitiveness and Social Cohesion, November 22nd, 23rd 2011 The Process of Evaluating University Policy in the EU by EEU

  2. Why • Strengthening Europe as a vibrant continent in which it is good to live; • Universities can contribute so much more to sustainable economic growth and social cohesion. • Point of view : Policy Universities Socio-economic Outcomes

  3. How • Inform democratic process with evidence. • Using the outcomes of the “social experiments” of individual countries in a relatively homogeneous space (the EU). • Putting pressure through “the State of University Policy for Progress in Europe” (June 2012). • Individual Government’s University Policy and EU Policy as targets.

  4. Steps • Agree on the framework for evaluation (Nov.22/23, 2011). • (Continue research on the relation between policy and university outcomes). • Collect data per country on dimensions of evaluation framework (Dec. 2011-March 2012). • Correspondents “rate” Government policy in their country (Dec. 2011– June 2012).

  5. Steps (continued) • Correspondents seek in their own country a second, independent evaluator. • Both evaluations will be included in final document (June 22/23rd). • Between December 2011 and 2012 intensive interaction through internal part of website EmpowerEU.org (only accessible for correspondents and staff).

  6. Support • NWO (Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research) for Nov 2011, June 2012 Conferences. • ETS Educational Testing Service for Project Leader (2012). • EU Application. • The project is sufficiently well supported for 2011 and 2012.

  7. Beyond 2012 • Annual update on the State of University Policy for Progress in Europe. • In particular attention for dynamics (a EEU prize for the most vibrant country?). • Simultaneous action to enhance the EHEA by reducing barriers to mobility, Erasmus 3.0.

  8. The Result • Vibrant European Universities which are attractive to students world wide. • A resurgence of the universities in the South and East of Europe by focusing EU structural and cohesion funds on human capital.
