Summary/Abstract: The changes in the situation of the university have brought about real “challenges” for this institution. The text briefly addresses such challenges as: the implementation of the Bologna Declaration (1999) in Europe; the globalization; the sustainability and the identity of a university; the autonomy; the quality assurance; the phenomenon of “brain drain”; the issue of multiculturalism, of leadership; the climate change; the overcoming of relativism; the recuperation of a vision based on knowledge. I will express my personal points of view, containing what has been formulated in my previous research (on the theory of comprehensive reform, the delimiting of the types of actual reform, the idea of multicultural organization).
