H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) WORKSHOP C EPS collaboration in Physics Studies across Europe Hendrik FERDINANDE Member EPS Executive Committee, FR-68200Mulhouse Universiteit Gent, BE-9000 Gent

H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) Summary Quality A New Standard? Prologue (i) & (ii) EPS : Bologna Process Project (i),(ii) & (iii) ‘A European Specification for Physics Doctoral Studies’ Alternative approaches (Natur. Sc. & Eng.) Conclusions & workshop suggestions (i) & (ii)

H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) Quality A New Standard? A North American professor went to India earlier this year to teach No sooner had he begun when a student asked if his course was compliant with one found on the MIT OpenCourseware site Is this a new bottom-up standard?

H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) Prologue (i) European Physical Society (EPS) –grass roots member driven organisation –over 3,000 individuals, –41 national physical societies DPG ~ 60,000 memb.; IoP ~ 40,000 memb. –50 unis, research labs and comp’s active in physics European Mobility Scheme for Physics Students [EMSPS] (1992/2003)

H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) Prologue (ii) Support to ‘Bologna Process’ and EHEA BPP: ‘ The implementation of the Bologna Process into Physics Studies in Europe’ –systematic analysis European-wide impact reforms to degree structure in physics Logistic help from INCHER (International Centre for Higher Education Research) (Prof. B. Kehm) Universität Kassel (DE)

H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) EPS : Bologna Process Project (i) EPS + 17 Nat. Phys. Soc. + INCHER Inquiries –Bachelor in 2008 –Master in 2009 –Doctoral in 2010 Results Ba & Ma & Doc (provisional): see Concluded large dissemination conference

H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) EPS : Bologna Process Project (ii) ‘A European Specification for Physics Bachelor/Master/Doctoral Studies’ i.e. characteristics of physics study programmes in a European dimension at EQF Level 6, 7 & 8 (sort of descriptors for Level 6, 7 & 8 in a SQF) Guidebook for Physics Ba/Ma/Doc study by group phys. experts (EPS, IoP, DPG, EPS - BPP & EPS - PED)

H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) EPS : Bologna Process Project (iii) European Specification Phys Ba/Ma/Doc Studies –introduction –programme structure & delivery –physics –physics Ba/Ma/Doc discipline competences –physics Ba/Ma/Doc generic competences –annex: Ba: European Benchmarks (i.e. “contents”) Target groups –physics departments: e.g. Directors of Studies –physics students & candidates –physics related industry: e.g. CEOs, recruiting managers

H. Ferdinande 21st C Doctorate Brussels (BE) ‘A European Specification for Physics Doctoral Studies’ Dublin Descriptors Salzburg II recommendations Banff Principles on Graduate Education 2007 Doctoral candidates (students): emphasize professional status ‘Tuning Educational Structures in Europe’
