Sažetak
In the process of transformation of the higher education and science system at the European level with the tendency of harmonising the institutional and organisational frames of the university work and academic activities, and stimulating knowledge transfer, the transport sciences will also have to insure adequate status in the scientific classification and a thematically and methodologically recognisable dimension of academic activities. The specific subjects of the transport sciences study in the future will gain in significance, recognisability, and excellence, only by the consistent development and constant upgrading of the basic, specialist and scientific curricula. Academic connections among the transport related faculties, the exchange of their students and lecturers and the collaboration in organising scientific conferences and in research projects are on the line of gradual adoption of new methodological solutions in higher education and science, which are stipulated by reformation and integration processes in the field of higher education and science in Europe. In this sense, the past experience leads to the conclusion that it is important to establish bilateral and multilateral cooperation in the field of transport sciences at inter-faculty level than because of the small number of autonomous scientific and educational institutions, and scientific and teaching staff of this profile. It is precisely this fact that has to be recognised in the acquisition of concrete joint projects at national levels, or in the application of concrete joint projects at the regional level. Gatherings and exchange of knowledge and experience of the representatives from the transport faculties in Europe present an opportunity, apart from maintaining the continuity and improvement of academic co-operation, also for detecting potential research topics of mutual interest and concretisation of targeted projects as part of TEMPUS, SOCRATES/ERASMUS and 7th Frame Program of the European Commission. Logically, the scientific and research resources of the transport faculties should be the most competent factors in the development of transport sciences, their promotion and further affirmation, and consequently the most important contributors in postulating the transport development of Europe.
