Reforms of the education system carried out in post-Soviet Russia within the framework of the «Bologna process», in their conceptual basis, are aimed at building in the Russian Federation an educational system similar to the educational systems of Western countries. One of the main goals of the Bologna Process is «to promote mobility by overcoming obstacles to the effective implementation of free movement». For this, it is necessary that the levels of higher education in all countries are as similar as possible, and the scientific degrees awarded based on the results of education are the most transparent and easily comparable.

Most African countries that were former British colonies replicated the British higher education system and created both universities and polytechnics. However, in order to increase their tertiary education enrolment, these countries are gradually upgrading their polytechnics to universities. This article argues that this is a wrong move as polytechnics are as important as universities for Africa’s development, and calls for a re-consideration of the polytechnics conversion policy.
