These individual differences are immediately relevant for individual studentsas they strive to solve problems with varying degrees of structure (e.g., open-ended vs. closed-ended, tightly constrained vs. loosely constrained, etc.) and to meet the expectations of theirinstructors, whose own

The Bachelor’s level should not only give employability; it should also be a pivot point for cross-European and international mobility and an entry point to the Master’s level. 7. Universities should be allowed to set their own admission criteria for entry to the 2nd Cycle. 8. The organisations for engineering education and the professional engineers in Europe should play a formal role in the development of accreditation, quality assurance and recognition at a European levelThe above eight points represent statements of caution in implementing Bologna forengineering curricula and certainly
