Quality and Evaluation
Quality assurance and enhancement safeguard and promote the quality of education and research. Quality assurance and enhancement will prevent, identify and remedy failings, support effective operations, and encourage improvements and innovative thinking.
Evaluations clarify what is worth caring for and maintaining, what can be improved and done differently, and what can be phased out. In this way evaluation drives quality enhancement.Here you find support for the quality work that takes place within, and the evaluations that are made of, the university's activities regarding education at all levels. The support is given, for example, in relation to:
Uppsala University's quality system
Uppsala university’s quality assurance and enhancement system is based on the existing culture of academic quality, which is actively maintained, continuously reviewed and renewed by staff and students, with the support of management at all levels.
Staff and students share the responsibility for quality assurance and enhancement. The University management has overall responsibility. Each disciplinary domain/faculty is responsible for the quality of education and research in its own field.
The goals for Uppsala University's quality work are set out in the document Mission, Goals and Strategies.
