Quality System and Regulations
The European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and Spanish regulations establish that universities must have formally established and publicly available policies and Internal Quality Assurance Systems (IQAS).
The Internal Quality Assurance System (IQAS) of the University of Design, Innovation, and Technology (UDIT) is the set of documented processes necessary to manage and control the development of various activities in order to:
- Contribute to the achievement of objectives and purposes of quality systems in the European Higher Education Area, in accordance with the document “Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area” (ESG).
- Comply with the requirements established in the national legislation required for all its degrees.
- Facilitate the deployment of its purpose and vision through the Quality Policy within the scope of IQAS.
- Provide clear, precise, objective, up-to-date, and easily accessible information about its activities and programs.
- Ensure effective continuous improvement of the system.
