Discussion
The results of our research reveal that the traditional, unique, conferences organized
annually by the local Councils of Students’ Research Societies can reach out to 7-8 % of the
students taking part in the higher education at institutional level. Among them the best awarded
ones present their scientific results on the biannually organized national conferences, in 16
areas of science. That is over 2 % of the total number of students in higher education. Almost
70 % of the students participating in the national conferences got directly into the third level of
Bologna system, starting their Ph.D. studies, while additional 10-15 % starts their Ph.D. studies
over the following five years......
The number of students taking part in scientific research societies has increased
dinamically in the evaluated period in each examined type of higher educational institutions,
due to the conscious talent management activity of the staff. The instituions pay more and more
attention to promoting the young scientists at bachelor level already, since their results in national
scientific conferences play an important role in their ranking. The above mentioned facts clearly
verify that the earlier the rearing of young scientific generation starts the more determining base
of the Bologna system‘s third level can be supported. Rearing the junior research staff, the
talent management should receive high priority at the universities and colleges, the research
student society can basically create the base of those students who are able to apply to the third
level of multi-cycle Bologna training system. On the one hand, the business world requires the
higher education to train specialists with practical knowledge, on the other hand, the scientific
research should have more than marginal role. The Faculty of Economics and Social Sciences
at the Szent István University will continue to focus on maintaining the efficiency of the above
introduced talent management model in the changing three-cycle training. We should aim to set
up the scientific background for students in the bachelor-level training, in order to manage the
talented ones at appropriate levels. It is inevitable to create real research teams and research
student groups and the prevailing faculty management should support this work because the
time available at the first level of Bologna training is very little.
