Abstract

This paper proposes a methodology for increasing the effectiveness of corporate governance in higher education by integrating the perception of employers within curriculum development. In order to develop this methodology, the authors used methods of gathering and integrating the requirements of employers into the program study offer to highlight the groups of subjects which contribute significantly in achieving the competences required by the labor market. Also, the authors conducted a comparative analysis aimed to study the relationship between the number of credits allocated to the main groups of subjects and their relative importance in achieving the required level of skills, all leading to increased market orientation of the study program.
