Improving Higher Education in the Slovak Republic
Higher education helps learners acquire the knowledge and skills they need to lead
productive working lives, and it sparks the innovation that fosters economic growth
and social progress. However, creating higher education systems that operate at a
high level of research and teaching quality, with responsiveness to social and labour
market demands, requires effective public policies and institutional practices. This
report, which focuses on funding and governance reforms to improve higher education
in the Slovak Republic, is a collaboration between the European Commission’s Directorate-General
for Structural Reform Support (DG REFORM), the Institute for Strategies and Analysis
in the Office of the Government of the Slovak Republic and the OECD’s Directorate
for Education and Skills. Building on stakeholder engagement and comparative analysis,
the report offers an international perspective on the performance of the Slovak higher
education system and provides an action plan focused on governance and funding reforms,
placing special emphasis on implementation planning to support reform success.
