  • Universities in process of regional integration and globalisation in the higher education area
    Marhl, Marko ; Rebolj, Danijel ; Kraljić, Mladen
    On the basis of experience gained by the University of Maribor, we present the process of networking of universities in a regional area and their integration into broader international flows. We ... present in more detail the integration of universities in the Alps-Adriatic and Danube regions, which has significantly influenced the development of universities in these regions. Regional integration has taken on new dimensions within the framework of EU regional policy. At the moment, the "Danube Region Strategy" is very topical and the University of Maribor actively participates in it. Regional aspects of universities' work in the fields of research, education and, in particular, the formation of study programmes and students' and professors' mobility are increasingly taking on European and worldwide dimensions. The European Union encourages joint research work and joint study programmes and enables, through mobility programmes, the flow of students and academic and non-academic staff. The quality and measuring the quality of scientific, educational and other work of universities is becoming more and more of global importance. We present the involvement of the University of Maribor within the work of international associations and projects in this field. At the end, a vision of future actions of the University of Maribor is presented.
