National External Quality Assurance Requirements

  • Initial institutional accreditation
    gives universities and colleges certain rights to award national degrees or diplomas.
  • Programme accreditation
    required for non-accredited university colleges on all levels and for university colleges or specialised university institutions that wish to establish a new doctoral or master programme outside their doctoral fields.
  • Audit
    carried out at least once in 8 years. The right to self-accredit programmes is conditional upon a positive evaluation of the higher education institution's internal QA system (audit).
