  1. Introduction of Center for International Higher Education Studies Classification of higher education institutions – the case of Hungary Prof. Dr. Ildikó Hrubos Executive director ildiko.hrubos@uni-corvinus.hu Workshop on The Bologna process and graduate career tracking system Budapest, 19th October, 2011

  2. The Center for International Higher Education Studies (CIHES) was established in May 2008 by the resolution of the Council of the Faculty of Economics at Corvinus University of Budapest (CUB). The Center is an umbrella organization for those researchers who are teaching and pursuing research in various fields of higher education at different faculties of CUB. Other researchers from Hungarian universities can join to the Center, too. One of the goals of the Center is to join European research consortia and to contribute to their results in the analysis of the educational processes with suggestions and proposals. I. Introduction of the Center forInternational Higher Education Studies

  3. Research topics include: analysis of the implementation of European higher education reform internationalization of higher education mobility in higher education funding reforms in higher education social dimension of higher education pedagogical methods, quality assurance

  4. 11 members from the Corvinus Universtity of Budapest 11 members with other affiliation 6 partner institutions http://uni-corvinus.hu/ubdex.php?id=24848&L=1 The struture of the Center

Their mission is to analyze research and development problems at the University and in the region. ELTE Center for Higher Education Management The Center organizes workshops in various topics of higher education management monthly.

Our publications include conference documents, research papers and other materials connected to the activities of the Center. • Tutoring students research activity (in Master and PhD programs)

  8. Tempus Foundation research project On internationalization of the Hungarian higher education 2009-2010 EU supported projects in consortia led by the Center for Higher Education Policy Studies – Twente The Bologna Process independent assessment 2010 Contract-2008-3112/001-001 ERA-ERPROG CIHES is an independent research unit in the university project TÁMOP 4.2.1.: Research, Development and Innovation. 2010-2012 Research projects

  9. Classifying European Institutions for Higher Education (CEIHE) project – Centre for Higher Education Policy Studies (CHEPS), University of Twente – The Netherlands (2004 – 2010) The project aimed to develop a field-based classification system, not a typology (the latter would imply theoretical classification). A set of criteria was developed along which different groups of institutions could be identified. Classification reveals similarities and differences thus it helps to understand phenomena and to improve transparency. A fundamental feature that characterizes the system is its user-friendliness; the system is suitable for the widest range of users. II. Classification of higher educationinstitutons: U-Map

  10. The system should be built upon empirical data; institutions should be classified upon their actual characteristics and not on previous regulatory distinction of various types (e.g. universities, colleges). The classification should apply a multi-dimensional approach and should reflect the views of various stakeholders that are allowed to use the system in their best interest. The classification should be non-hierarchical both in terms of dimensions and sub-categories. The classification should be relevant to all higher education institutions (including only accredited institutions). The classification should be descriptive, and not prescriptive. It should not evaluate or judge institutions neither on dimensions, nor on indicators. The classification should use reliable and verifiable data. The classification should be based upon existing data; no additional data collection is needed. Principles of the U-Map TÁMOP-4.2.1/B-09/1/KMR-2010-0005

  11. An overview of U-Map dimensions and indicators

  12. An overview of dimensions and indicators in the Hungarian model

  13. Table 1: Distribution of higher education institutions by status, founder and size of institution (2009/2010) The structure of higher educationinstitutions in Hungary

  14. The structure of higher educationinstitutions in Hungary Table 2: Distribution of students by founder and status of institution (%)(2009/2010) Source: Database of the Ministry of National Resources, calculated data

  15. 1. Cluster 16 institutions, all in church college status: operate exlusively in one field – theology; small student number – all under 1 thousand, the majority under 500 2. Cluster 7 institutions, all private colleges – relatively small size; mostly business administration and communication profile The results of the cluster analyses

  16. 3. Cluster 10 relatively large colleges (state and private) – wider subject areas 4. Cluster 11 institutions (1 university and 11 collages) – state, church, private; special professional orientation:theology, business administration, social service, military sciences, dance

  17. 5. Cluster 11 universities and 1 college (state and church) – wide but not „classical” professional and research orientation, big size 6. Cluster 7 special, relatively small elite universities (state and church) - theology, music, film, fine arts

  18. 7. Cluster 2 private, international universities (English and German) – mostly graduate programs in social sciences and humanities 8. Cluster 4 large, traditional (state) universities (over 30 thousand students) – a whole spectrum of teaching and research activities
