In Norway, Spain and Sweden, the level ofsubsidies, transferred from the State budget to the IHEs, has been related to the effects ofeducation (e.g. to the number of graduates).The first symptoms of a severe financial crisis of higher education appeared in Poland in theearly 90’s. As a response, based on the analysis of the world situation, the idea of partialpayment for studies, coupled with individually-granted loans available to all interestedstudents, was put forward.

The most importantmonographic resources covered in this first meeting were some key reference books. The Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology (3rd Edition) was to prove a fundamental source,including a sample flowsheet of the dehydrogenation process. McKetta’s Encyclopedia ofChemical Processing Design was also useful, although in 1989 it had not yet published volumesup to the letter “s”!The design teams needed answers for at least the first two questions that had been put to them,and I hoped that the journal literature would provide both the

Ingeneral, faculty do not like the added demands of developing and teaching the new classes sinceusually there are no rewards or recognition for such efforts. Moreover, their extra efforts mightreceive criticism if they do not conform to others' expectations. However, these concerns can be Page 5.98.6resolved as long as the assigned teacher(s) understand the program's philosophy and has thepatience, enthusiasm and flexibility to implement the necessary innovations.Students’ resistance to change
