Докторський і постдокторський рівні рамки кваліфікацій: теоретико-методологічний аспект

Abstract

The highest (doctoral) qualifications and its identification by means of qualifications frameworks are analyzed in the article. It is argued that existent European meta-frameworks (Qualifications Framework for European Higher Education Area and European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning) not include postdoctoral qualifications (Higher, Habilitated Doctor, Doctor of Sciences) which overbuild above traditional PhD and equivalent degrees. Variants of achievement of real complete comprehension for qualifications metaframeworks and descriptors for doctoral and postdoctoral qualifications are proposed.
