María Balarin discusses on the unique university model promoted by the university reform law

“The (university) law takes over a homogeneus model of university, for which all institutions are aim to do the same”. María Balarín, senior researcher at GRADE, discussed on the challenges to university reform, including setting up a unique model. In this sense, Balarín argued that, with the massification of higher education, “there are relevant processes of institutional differentiation, with universities more oriented to training professionals and other more dedicated to knowledge production”.
