In: Human: research in rehabilitation, Band 2, Heft 1, S. 5-22

Abstract

We are witnessing the emergence of private universities "like mushrooms after rain". It is more than clear that they are not well met by state universities. Bosnia and Herzegovina is a very fertile ground for setting this palette of problems in the educational focus of interest of the public, because there are no competent ministries of education at the state level. There isframework lawon the state level but nothing exists anywhere along the vertical axis. This produced distortion of the quality and reputation of higher education. In this paper a survey among teachers and students of private and stateuniversitywas conducted and has shownthat there are differencesin opinionsof respondentsin some respectsregarding the quality of work. The solution would be replacing the stereotypical opinions about the differences between private and public universities and entirely rotating them toward a new, living approach to ensuring quality of education.
