switch to bachelor’s and master’s degrees. The system not only improves the international comparability of academic degrees; it also offers a great deal of flexibility in shaping the course of one’s education. For example, it is possible to embark on a career after completing a bachelor’s degree and at the same time complete a master’s degree program part-time. Additional advantages of the system include increased student mobility and the enhanced attractiveness of the academic courses on offer for foreign students.
