Abstract

Higher education institutions are facing serious challenges all over Europe. Besides the rate of unemployment, lack of professionals, the decreasing number of young generations the expected quality and the content of knowledge have also changed. These challenges have a greater effect on post-socialist countries since it is completely new to them that educational institutions are players on the open market and are competitors. Our research set out to examine the economic and educational policy background in Hungary and Romania for the past 10 years, which might have influenced the functioning of universities, financing research and development as well as relationships between higher education institutions and private companies. Nowadays people want to acquire practical knowledge, courses and trainings are also trying to be more practical in nature. Using indepth interviews the aim of the research was on the one hand, to find out whether universities are trying to develop relationships with companies and if so in which fields; on the other hand, it tried to reveal if the directors of these companies consider these relationships to be successful and what are the mistakes or shortcomings they see. The opinions and answers given by company directors clearly confirm the existence of such efforts on behalf of the universities. The results show that in the two countries examined, having different educational systems, companies have similar expectations towards universities and their teaching staff. However, responses given to these expectations differ in more aspects, despite of the similar background of the two countries.
