EXPERIENCE OF IMPLEMENTATION OF BOLOGNA DECLARATION IN ENGINEERING BRANCH IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC (ESPECIALLY IN TEACHING MEASUREMENT)
Vladimír Haasz
Abstract:
New study programmes corresponding to Bologna declaration started in the Czech Republic in 2002 (bachelor study stage), but in electrical engineering generally in 2003. Therefore the first run of master study stage has finished this year. 41 % of bachelor programmes in engineering are oriented more practically, 25 % prefer theoretical background for master stage, about 15 % were prepared as universal and the rest arose by dividing of the first part of long master programme to 2 bachelor programmes – one practically oriented and the other as preparing for master stage.
Actual experience indicates that the main aims of Bologna declaration (to improve quality of bachelors regarding assertion in practice; to increase the number of successful students and to preserve the existing good level of master degree) were not satisfied in education of engineering in the Czech Republic. There are three areas where Czech technical universities indicate problems by application of new bachelors curricula: Assertion in practice, Continuing in master stage and Mobility. The second part of the paper go into teaching measurement and instrumentation in the Czech Republic after implementation of Bologna Declaration and problems pertinent to it.
