The future of economic geography in Germany. Structural changes in the German system of higher education exert increasing pressure on geography as an academic discipline. This paper discusses these forces of change from the viewpoint of a university manager before evaluating the resulting impacts and challenges for economic geography. It is argued that to survive in an increasingly competitive academic environment, the discipline needs to strengthen its profile and focus on its core competencies. Rather than following the route of a “cultural turn” or building walls to separate economic geography from economics, the author argues for a closer collaboration with economists in both research and teaching.

Tuition Fee

SummaryTuition fees – as they are now possible in the German system of higher education – may change the behaviour of students. To analyse these reactions more rigorously, a microeconomic decision model is constructed. It consists of two periods: in the first one, students invest in their human capital by studying a fixed period of time. The student’s decision problem is to choose between three time-consuming activities: the intensity of study, working in the labour market and enjoying leisure. In the second period, former students are assumed to use their human capital for earning a living by working. The wage they realise depends on the intensity of study in the first period. Incorporating a tuition fee into this model, it is analysed how the allocation of the student´s time between studying, working and leisure will change as well as how the demand for credit will be adjusted.

The German System of higher education is quite apparently in crisis; it needs to redefine it's function and legitimize itself. In the public this is mostly discussed as a question of efficiency. In the course of the past years, conceptional agreements have been made by the state, the economy and scientific associations, upon forms of fundamental reorganization concerning the system of higher education, on the basis of measurable effectiveness in management. Tenor of the article is a detailed critical analysis of these concepts. Above all, this requires a description of the nonfunctioning areas which the system of higher education system shows today, emphasizing on historical aspects.

Abstract Cluttering is discussed openly in the fluency literature, but few educational opportunities for learning more about cluttering exist in higher education. The purpose of this manuscript is to explain how a seminar in cluttering was developed for a group of communication disorders doctoral students. The major theoretical issues, educational questions, and conclusions are discussed.
