Title
International On-Line Degree Programs in Higher Education: Proposals for Albania, Turkey and University Computer Centers
Abstract
Higher education is education provided by universities and other institutions that award academic degrees. Higher education includes both the teaching and the research activities of universities, and within the realm of teaching, it includes both the undergraduate level (sometimes referred to as tertiary education) and the graduate (or postgraduate) level (sometimes referred to as quaternary education or graduate school). Higher education differs from other forms of post-secondary education such as vocational education. However, most professional education is included within higher education, and many postgraduate qualifications are strongly vocationally or professionally oriented, for example in disciplines such as law and medicine. In this study the trends in higher education, the effects of globalization on higher education, the opportunities presented by communication and information technologies; and the effects of changes in higher education on globalization will be mentioned. At the end of the present study a road map will be presented by taking the suggestions and position of Turkey and Albania as a starting point for computer centers at universities.
