Evidenzen zur sozialen Dimension in der Hochschulbildung

Vernetzungskonferenz 2024

Organiser: Bundesministerium für Bildung, Wissenschaft und Forschung

Zielbestimmung, Maßnahmengestaltung und Zielerreichung sind im Bereich der sozialen Dimension in der Hochschulbildung her­aus­for­dernd. Wie kann die Fülle an vor­han­de­nen Administrativ- und Surveydaten sowie qua­li­ta­ti­ven Evidenzen genutzt werden, um profunde und erfolg­ver­spre­chen­de Ableitungen zu gene­rie­ren und das Maßnahmenportfolio weiter zu ver­bes­sern? Letztlich sind es Evidenzen, die darüber Aufschluss geben, ob die Integration von Equity und Excellence im Hochschulsystem gelingt und das gesamte Innovationspotential aus­ge­schöpft wird.
Workshop 1: Am Studienbeginn (Maturierenden-Befragung, SOLA 2023)
Hochschulische Maßnahmen setzen beim Übergang von der Schule zur Hochschule an. Welche aktuellen Evidenzen liegen dem BMBWF und den Hochschulen zu dieser Schnittstelle vor?
Workshop 2: Entlang des Student Life Cycle (EUROSTUDENT 8, SOLA 2023)
Über den Studienverlauf (Student Life Cycle) gibt es nationale Evidenzen aus der Studierenden-Sozialerhebung, die auch in die EUROSTUDENT-Erhebung ein­flie­ßen. Inwiefern werden diese syste­mi­schen Daten in die insti­tu­tio­nel­len Analysen ein­be­zo­gen? Mit welchen weiteren Befunden arbeiten die Hochschulen?
Workshop 3: Am Übergang zur Beschäftigung (EUROGRADUATE 2022, SOLA 2023)
Die Schnittstelle Hochschulbildung und Beschäftigung bzw. Arbeitsmarkt ist für die Hochschul-Governance wesent­lich. Welche Informationen liefern die EUROGRADUATE Befragung von Absolventinnen und Absolventen und welche erhalten wir aus insti­tu­tio­nel­lem Tracking?
Um Antwort wird gebeten bis 12.11.2024:

The Making of Apprenticeships

Divergence, Experience, and the Transformation of Vocational Education & Training

Dietmar Frommberger & Christoph Porcher

The conference explores the making and remaking of apprenticeships as a global historical phenomenon, tracing how pre-industrial craft training evolved under industrialisation, state-building, and changing educational ideas.

7th Crossing Boundaries Conference

Learning Across Continents: Conversations in a divided world

VETNET

Topics:

  • How do we understand the role of VET in preparing young people for work when labour markets and workplaces are in flux nationally and internationally?
  • Is this changing the nature of VET and VET curricula? Is it raising new questions on work, labour markets and education? What is core to VET that is stable across different contexts?
  • Are systems looking more similar or more different from each other?
  • What are the main factors—such as workplace organisation, changing labour markets, changing enrolment in schools and universities, and the nature of economies that are influencing different aspects of VET provision—such as curriculum, governance, partnerships, enrollment patterns—in different countries?
  • How do we connect better as researchers, and use VET research to build connection?

NordYrk 2027

Embracing Diversity in Vocational Education and Training (VET)

Umeå University

Vocational Education and Training (VET) in the Nordic countries is shaped by strong welfare traditions, close relationships between education and working life, and longstanding ambitions of equality, inclusion and high‑quality education for all. Nevertheless, Nordic VET systems display substantial variation and complexity, influenced by social, demographic, pedagogical and structural differences across countries, regions, institutions and vocational fields. The 2027 NORDYRK conference Embracing Diversity in VET invites researchers, practitioners and policymakers to explore how such diversity shapes the conditions, opportunities and challenges of VET.   The Call for abstracts opens on November 11, 2026 and closes on January 31, 2027. Registration is required.
