Finland has implemented several higher education (HE) reforms over the past decades in
order to make its HE system more competitive in the global educational markets. These
reforms are in line with the developments in other Western higher education systems in
which the transposition of principles and philosophy from the private sector into the public
sector has become more common or even a norm thus reinterpreting the economic, social and
cultural basis of higher education (e.g. Exworthy & Halford 1999). Furthermore, the
implementation of the reforms is a response to the rapidly changing needs of the labour
markets. In Finland, Bologna process was partly incorporated to be part of the reactions to
these needs especially in the form of degree reform and efforts to improve quality of higher
education. (Välimaa, Hoffman & Huusko 2006).
