Student involvement in Accreditation in Germany

Throughout Europe, higher education has been drastically reshaped by what is usually referred to as the
Bologna process – named after Europe’s oldest university in Bologna, Italy, where the first meeting was held.
Subsequently, based on the Bologna agreement and the Lissabon treaty a system for accreditation and quality
assurance was established by all countries in the European higher education area (EHEA), containing the EU
countries and some others.
