How should these legal bases After your idea be developed? to reform, could you imagine, the Federal Council for the maintenance rights to use, for example, towards the parents' income independent funding?
The CDU / CSU-FDP coalition in Berlin has increased with the BAFöG reform of the rates and expanded the circle of beneficiaries in the coming years. This policy is also supported by the FDP Saxony-Anhalt. The FDP has also spoken out for some time for parents independent loan program to finance the cost of living. The coalition of CDU / CSU and FDP has also undertaken the harmonization of benefits be examined in the maintenance law, tax law, social law and family law and to take appropriate action.
second The federal government has decided to introduce a nationwide "Germany scholarship" that the "best performers" per month 300 € - divided equally funded by the federal government and private sponsors - will bring. Do you support this plan?
What is your general attitude to performance-based grants in relation to BAföG?
It is not clear why they put in your question the most powerful word in quotation marks. Can you read from it an aversion to performance? The introduction Germany the scholarship along the lines of the successfully established scholarship program in NRW we welcome. We want to support the universities in administrative expenses and the acquisition of private investors through state funds. Student loans and merit scholarships are for us an independent way of facilitating the baseline for young people dar.
third Tuition fees since their introduction a highly controversial issue. In seven provinces, tuition fees were introduced, two (Hesse and Saarland) they have now been abolished in North Rhine-Westphalia is the abolition planned. Bayern, however, has plans allow for part-time undergraduate degree programs even higher tuition fees of up to 2000 € first.
What are your plans for Saxony-Anhalt?
tuition fees for the initial studies are collected in almost all countries in the world and fully accepted because higher education is seen as a future investment. The FDP in Saxony-Anhalt, however, sees the toll-free access to study at the moment of urgency in order to improve the opportunities for young people. Training and continuing education courses have long been in Saxony-Anhalt with different levels of fees shows what is generally recognized.
4th What do you think of the social movements that understand democracy not only as a system, which gives you all four years, his voice, do (for example, the Education Alliance strike, protests against Stuttgart 21)? If you think
greater voice and participation "from below" necessary and possible?
they consider to be necessary in this sense, changes in higher education?
The FDP holds citizenship - regardless of the claims represented - outside of elections for enrichment of representative democracy. Just the right to demonstrate is a distinguishing feature of the liberal constitutional state. The determination rights at local and state level through hearings, citizen initiatives, etc., we believe in principle adequate, can in individual cases, but are extended (see below Sven Haller Civil Chamber). In the future, it is increasingly important to educate the public about it is that such participation rights, and that they must be used before a planning or approval process is complete.
In terms of universities, we need a high degree of autonomy, freedom of design and development so that they are faster, better and more competitive. The internal constitution and the right of participation of the students considered the FDP as a competitive and quality factor. Independent of formal questions, the universities are well advised to step up listening to the views of students. The written student bodies can bring important impulses for the universities. You must succeed in convincing more of the students of the benefits so that they participate in the elections. A continued focus on the everyday concerns would be the best way.
5th Brandenburg has introduced a national student-BAföG for those students who can not get a date BAföG (particularly for pupils in upper secondary schools, live with their parents). What do you think of this approach and what are your plans to help more people from financially disadvantaged families to a university entrance qualification?
key to equal opportunity in education is to support the educational structures, measures to reduce the cancellation of lessons and teachers help students more than one grant at a monthly pocket money. Furthermore, we like the Brandenburg FDP are of the opinion that a support only in the secondary school and vocational school - that is until the final phase of school education - attaches attacks, too late. Perhaps more fundamentally, we see no need, beyond Graduate promote a national education promotion system introduced. Moreover, were found in a survey of the country, no cases have been omitted in which the visit of a high school because of family financial situation.
6th The share of public primary means for funding the universities from 1980 to 2007 declined from 72.3 to 50.1 percent during the same period have increased funding by grants and revenue management in recent decades, massive.
How are you to the fact that the public funding of higher education in recent decades more and more has been scaled back?
This claim true of Saxony-Anhalt is not correct. The fact that the universities, however, reinforced by external funding - especially in the field of economy and foundations - try, we very much welcome. Here, our universities have, however, its potential far from exhausted. Each project addresses obtained external funding for research in Saxony-Anhalt. Public funding of higher education in recent decades, not reduced, however there were particular to reduce the medium term by SPD finance minister repeatedly attempted, the budgets of the universities. The public sector is also required in the future, a decent financing sure. The universities have in turn continue to drive their profile. We plan to build object by a subject support to the university reward better performance.
7th What do you think of the so-called "debt brake", which is recorded on your move in the constitution will now present in more and more state constitutions? The education union GEW here represents very pointedly the view that this "brake" especially cuts in social services and that, consequently nothing more than an "education brake" is. What do you think?
The FDP Saxony-Anhalt has the charge of GEW decided on its own and has expressed its commitment to the debt brake. We allowed the opportunities and thus the educational opportunities of future generations not to compromise by excessive debt policy today. A balanced state budget on the one side and the grant allows the highest priority for education in the country's policy on the other side of every generation a quality public education.
8th A recent study by the Research Institute for Education and Social Economy (FiBS) found that "[are] required by 2020 to a million more places. In the light of the Higher Education Pact is therefore a financial need for additional 700,000 seats. This Demand for places is the fact that urge to 2020 every year at least 400,000 students to the universities. "
Do you agree with this analysis, if so, how you want to realize the expansion of the education places offered?
At this point, we adhere to the predictions from the high school 2020 ". As mentioned in the answer to Question 3 is, for Saxony-Anhalt because of the demographic development and a shrinking state budget less the problem of a purely quantitative available to the places as their financial quality of underpinning design. This Saxony-Anhalt attractive to students from all over Germany will be targeted to be invested in the quality of teaching and research. Moreover, Germany has done with the dual system of vocational education is very good experiences. Many professions in other countries require a high school education are in Germany at the same part on a higher level of professional training. The International Labour Organisation (ILO) has noted that Germany has therefore a very low youth unemployment in international comparison. In the future is for us: Not everyone has to study, but all who are capable should be able to study.
9th Currently, the Bachelor's degree for more and more students the dead end, because there are not enough master's degree courses. How do you feel about the implementation of the concept of the bachelor-master degree courses in Germany - usually six semester term bachelor's degree in transition rates in height about 30 - 70%, new entry for a master's degree?
What development needs do you see in this area?
The bachelor's degree is a neat professional qualifying degree, which unfortunately has not yet because of its novelty due recognition to the company. For a better acceptance of the Bachelors, we urge the university to even greater cooperation with industry, for example, in designing the courses. With the new grant programs created an opportunity to forge contacts with companies in order to win them as a long-term cooperation partners. In particular, in Saxony-Anhalt, in many fields of study a very high transition rate to the master, so your statement is not generally valid. The Master is primarily a preparation for an academic career, so that qualification requirements are quite reasonable.
the view of liberals, it is necessary to finally make the international recognition of qualifications awarded and credits to live the common educational space.
10th Many subjects are now restricted. Students are therefore forced to apply on a large number of universities and withdraw applications again, but if a place at a preferred universities is free. Now there is apparently already the dispute over the allocation of costs for the planned introduction next winter semester, the central (albeit voluntary) coordinated by the Foundation for Higher Education Approval hochschulSTART.de.
Would you intervene in this debate and urge the universities of their country to a single line or make financial commitments of the country the participation of all universities in the state?
The proven model currently in NRW, the study places centrally regulate the foundation for university admission, to get a chance to prove himself. The FDP Saxony-Anhalt believes, however, that the "new ZVS" will not bring our universities and colleges probably a lot. We will therefore not be forced to participate. We assume that the problems resulted mainly from the fact that public universities so far have little experience in self-determined selection of new students. We rely primarily to the fact that the university can solve these problems through voluntary cooperation among themselves and learning independently. There are good models for it in Saxony-Anhalt.
