Abstract
In this paper, we provide a brief sketch of some relevant features of new study programmes introduced in the Netherlands in accordance with the Bologna Process, as reported by graduates of those programmes in the annual surveys that have been held since the early 1990s in the HBO-Monitor and WO-Monitor. We focus on the situation of graduates of Bachelor and Master programmes. There are several comparisons that are of interest when looking at these programmes, the explanation of which requires a brief digression in order to describe some salient features of the Dutch higher education system before and after the implementation of the Bologna Process.
