Summary/Abstract: The paper investigates the history and the current state of the relation between the professional community of archaeologists and the organizational, social, and politic demands of the higher education system, especially in Serbia. From the inception of the university life in Serbia, in the second half of the 19th century, up to the present, this relationship has undergone significant changes, currently marked by the Bologna process. Although sometimes understood as impositions and restrictions, the demands of the higher education reforms may be regarded as incentives to re-investigate the social role and importance of archaeology in the present.
