The details
Adoption of a system essentially based on two main cycles, undergraduate and graduate. Access to the second cycle shall require successful completion of first cycle studies, lasting a minimum of three years. The degree awarded after the first cycle shall also be relevant to the European labour market as an appropriate level of qualification. The second cycle should lead to the master and/or doctorate degree as in many European countries.

Salamanca (March 30, 2001)
More than 500 representatives of European Universities
European universities [..] want to shape their own future in the new European context. They clearly expressed their will, their intention and their determination to take up the challenge of the Sorbonne/Bologna declaration and to be proactive in the process of building the European Higher Education Area, by 2010

Competition
Higher education institutions are willing to take the responsibility of operating in a competitive education arena, but this requires more real managerial autonomy (going beyond classical academic freedom), a flexible regulatory framework and fair financing.
![Page 10: The Bologna Reform: Beyond 3+2+3 Prof. Dr. Konrad Osterwalder Rector, ETH Zürich](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681675c550346895ddc27b1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Freedom with responsibility
Universities as legal entities need autonomy in, and want to be held accountable for:
strategic planning, setting goals and priorities funds allocation
selection of partners, locally, nationally and internationally, in research and in teaching
selection of research areas definition of curricula management of human capital, in particular the hiring
the professors setting of admission rules for students.

Bs – Ms System
Higher education needs to be structured in such a way that after 3 - 4 years (or rather 180 - 240 ECTS credits) a student should be eligible for a Bachelor-type degree. This degree should either lead to immediate employment or provide preparation for further studies leading to a Master degree. Under certain circumstances a university may decide to structure a curriculum as a 5-year integrated (i.e. unbroken) programme leading directly to a Master-level degree
![Page 13: The Bologna Reform: Beyond 3+2+3 Prof. Dr. Konrad Osterwalder Rector, ETH Zürich](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/5681675c550346895ddc27b1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Employability
Employability in a university context means: A well developed imagination The ability to approach and to solve a problem
systematically and methodically applying substantial knowledge
The capacity to lead social processThe overall structure of university programs and each element thereof must be targeted towards the development of the above mentioned personal skills, while allowing for a great variety of curricular approaches and for competing course designs
