Bachelor and Master qualifications and
consequences

• 1. goal graduate is able to work beyond existing
  bounds research, development, science
• 2. professionalism inherent aspect of
  engineering study
• 3. master central degree to achieve goal
• resource for research and
  development
• in industry and science
  engineer
• 4. bachelor basis for science and professional
  work
• turntable-function
  (consecutive, mobility, change of subject,
  professional activities)
• A bachelor opens all doors, the master is the
  goal
