RECENT (?) HISTORY
After the fall of the totalitarian regime, CU faced many problems
missing middle-aged generation in some fields: during the period of 40 years, CU lost many of its top academics twice; there were two waves of emigration (in the 50s and the 70s)
international contacts were kept only with the former Soviet block countries
there was almost no mobility of staff (neither students)
research was concentrated outside universities, only in the institutes of the Academy of Sciences
some fields, especially social sciences and humanities, had to be built from the scratch again
![Page 6: INTERNATIONALISATION WHAT FOR AND HOW? · in education: Tempus in the first period; later Socrates and Lifelong learning programme; in research: Framework Programmes for Research](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071117/600692eabd6c285c3c631a36/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
FURTHER OBSTACLES
Financial resources allowed only very limited number of mobility schemes – therefore strong focus on EU programmes and their co-funding
Difficult language of instruction for foreign students and staff
Outdated curricula of degree programmes
Insufficient knowledge of foreign languages
Missing infrastructure and literature
Changes in internal structures of universities and better university management were needed
etc.
![Page 7: INTERNATIONALISATION WHAT FOR AND HOW? · in education: Tempus in the first period; later Socrates and Lifelong learning programme; in research: Framework Programmes for Research](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071117/600692eabd6c285c3c631a36/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
DRIVERS OF CHANGE
Apart from legislation, internationalisation has become the main driver of changes in the Czech higher education as well as in transformation of Charles University into a democratic institution
Moreover, it was a driver leading the CR back to Europe and CU to become again a strong European university
There were mainly European programmes
in education: Tempus in the first period; later Socrates and Lifelong learning programme;
in research: Framework Programmes for Research and Technological Development
In 2004 – at the time of entrance in the EU – thanks to their active participation, universities were already part of EU
![Page 8: INTERNATIONALISATION WHAT FOR AND HOW? · in education: Tempus in the first period; later Socrates and Lifelong learning programme; in research: Framework Programmes for Research](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071117/600692eabd6c285c3c631a36/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
MISSION OF CHARLES UNIVERSITY AND
ITS STRATEGY FOR DEVELOPMENT
Building on the heritage of Charles IV : "To enhance education in the country offering its citizens the best possible education, so that they do not need to seek it in foreign lands, because this University will be in demand from foreigners themselves“ (Foundation Charter of CU)
High quality science and its connection with education should be a standard in every discipline
Strong support to young researches; doctoral study programmes should be cornerstones in this aspect
Openness to talented students, teachers and scholars from home and abroad
↓
Internationalisation strategy not as a separate strategy but rooted in all CU activities
![Page 9: INTERNATIONALISATION WHAT FOR AND HOW? · in education: Tempus in the first period; later Socrates and Lifelong learning programme; in research: Framework Programmes for Research](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071117/600692eabd6c285c3c631a36/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

SOME ACHIEVEMENTS
![Page 17: INTERNATIONALISATION WHAT FOR AND HOW? · in education: Tempus in the first period; later Socrates and Lifelong learning programme; in research: Framework Programmes for Research](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022071117/600692eabd6c285c3c631a36/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
ERASMUS PROGRAMME
Erasmus has become the most important programme
for student exchanges
In 2010/2011, CU reached a balanced in-out
mobility; nowadays, it is a significant receiving
institution hosting more than 1,400 and sending
slightly less than 1,200 students
The number of outgoing students puts CU at the 11th
place in Europe; in terms of incoming students, it is
placed 8th

STUDYING IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE
Number of students studying in a foreign language (usually
English) has more than tripled in the last decade, from 1%
to almost 5% of the overall student body; number of foreign
students grew to 13%
examples of good practice in foreign student
recruitment at CU are the faculties of medicine; in
recent years, the aim is to recruit the best candidates,
not to increase numbers
other faculties learn from this experience

CU IS RANKED IN THE TOP 2% OF THE
AAPPROXIMATELY 18,000 HEIs
CU is the only Czech and one of few Central and Eastern European universities
However carefully we have to read the results of the rankings, an institution which strives to be a European (international=global) research university has to consider this competition
Moreover, we can learn something from international comparison if carefully analysed what to use, how and where

INTERNATIONALISATION:
WHAT NEXT?

WHAT NEXT?
CU is profiled as an institution with national as well as international reach
CU has identified itself with the Humboldt Doctrine Though how these principles match up with current
challenges? the growing need to succeed in global competition the push to transform into a mere business selling
knowledge and education massification decreasing willingness to provide public funding universities becoming increasingly dependent upon private
interests, political pressures new modes of teaching – e.g. on-line courses of any type continuous demographic decline in the CR

Are we not concentrated too much on EU, respectively Europe in the sense of EHEA? Shall we start thinking about new international target groups of students – which ones? What regions of the world should they come from? Under which conditions do they come to Central and Eastern Europe?
Should we start to teach in other languages than English? E.g. Russian?

How far English should become more organic part of the courses taught in Czech for national students? Should some subjects be taught exclusively in English? Should the diploma theses and dissertations be written and defended in English to be more easily publishable? To what extent?
New technologies and forms of teaching, e.g. MOOCs – what influence will they have?

WHAT NEXT? THE CROSSROAD TO DECIDE LEADS
TO MORE QUESTIONS THAN ANSWERS CONT.
Majority of research is the basic one, but money invested at national and European level decline in favour of technology based projects. If this continues, excellent results will not help any longer
To what extent private money and grants hunting will influence and change the culture of CU? And to what extent is it desirable?
Can collaboration within such networks as UNICA help to find common approach to common problems? Could we share resources? Can cooperation be more powerful than competition?
Whatever the future will be, it will require international – if not global – interaction
