Abstract: Abstract Two issues related to higher education in Europe are addressed in this chapter; one relates to the mobility of students especially the Bologna process, the other to that of researchers, with a special focus on the new starting grants of the European Research Council. In both cases subsidiarity is at stake. However, though in the Bologna framework no central or inter-jurisdictional cooperative institution is in charge of efficiently assigning the task of organizing the financing of mobile students, in the other issue competences have already been assigned to the European Commission, in a way which does not exclude the exercise of similar competences by national or sub-national levels of power.
