Abstract:
The Bologna conference in 1999 initiated far-reaching changes of the complete system of higher education in Europe and started a process of a dimension not know hitherto. An internet search with the keyword “Bologna Process” will result easily in more than five million hits . Also in higher forestry education practically all study programmes are becoming due for fundamental revisions, which have already been started some years ago in many places and are in different stages of realisation now. The visions, obstacles, chances and risks will be dealt with in this presentation, giving examples from different countries and looking back to discussions at Silva-Network conferences.
