Abstract—More than twenty years have passed since the adoption of the Bologna agreements, and disputes between their supporters and opponents do not cease. In general, in Europe until recently two education systems dominated: Anglo-Saxon, i.e. German, and Latin. As a result of the adoption of the Bologna agreements, it turned out that the Latin system won. As math teachers of Higher School, we are interested in changes regarding the teaching of mathematics in Higher education. In this article the changes that had occurred as a result of the signing of the Bologna Convention were analyzed using the examples of Latvia and Russia.
