複線型教育制度のもとでの大学改革

—「開かれた大学」をめぐるドイツの事例—

抄録

This study attempts to take a view of university reform in Germany and discuss the significance of changes in the German educational system. German universities have entered the "universal phase" in education while maintaining their traditional multi-track education system. The aim of this study was to examine the situation in Germany, which differs from other countries with single-track education systems. We discuss the implications of the case of Germany by looking at data and materials on the principles and mechanisms used to "open the university" in a multi-track education system. Germany has developed a "qualification framework" system based on the principle of "permeability," which allows all students, regardless of social background, whether they attended any type of school, in general education or vocational education and training, to benefit from the system. This policy of "opening the university" is being promoted. However, this practice is not uniform and takes various forms at each university.
