Sažetak
During the past year, the Faculty of Geodesy of the University of Zagreb had done a fundamental reform of all its educational programs: from the undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate doctoral studies to the completely new postgraduate specialist studies. The paper describes the new Bachelor and Masters curricula in Geodesy and Geoinformatics at the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Geodesy. These curricula were approved and the Bachelor studies started in 2005/06, and will be followed by the Masters studies. Furthermore, in 2006, we prepared new postgraduate studies curricula. Postgraduate studies will be offered at two levels, accordingly leading to two types of degrees: Specialization (Spec.) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). Both degrees require course studies, as well as dissertation work. Theoretically, it will take one-year full-time studies (60 credits) to obtain the Spec. degree and three years (180 credits) for the PhD degree. The paper ends with some remarks describing the first experiences of the Bologna process application at the Faculty of Geodesy, University of Zagreb. The authors conclude that this new way of education requires different approach from all participants. Professors are to be engaged more and are more responsible, but also a more thorough, more responsible and more serious approach of students to new instruction requirements is expected. This reform is going to completely succeed only by fulfilment of tasks of all participants.
