Russia has signed the Bologna Declaration and has entered the European Higher Education Area in 2003. Russian HEIs have gone through an invasive modernization process transmitting from a 5-year specialists’ training (Engineers’ degree) to a two-cycle system of higher education, introducing ECTS to the existing hourly-based curriculum, providing opportunities for students’ and staff’s mobility programs, etc. However the practice shows that the Russian way of implementing the Bologna process requirements differs greatly from those of the European countries, specifically when the issue of individual learning paths is addressed.
