National External Quality Assurance Requirements

  • Institutional evaluations/accreditation
    are valid for five years. During the evaluation procedure, about 20 per cent of the study programmes offered by the institution are also evaluated. Before initiating an institutional accreditation higher education institutions need to apply for provisional authorisation.
  • Programme evaluation/accreditations
    are valid for five years and must be renewed regularly. Programmes first need to receive a provisional authorisation that is granted by the Ministry and, two years after the graduation of the first cohort, programmes may apply for an accreditation.
  • Evaluation of Master Study Domains
    The evaluation procedure started in 2018. The results of the evaluation are valid for five years.
