EMQA: Erasmus Mundus Quality Assurance for International Higher Education Master and Doctoral programmes

EMQA: Erasmus Mundus Quality Assurance for International Higher Education Master and Doctoral programmes
Self assess your performance with Erasmus Mundus masters and doctorates. Look at the EMQA  tool "Erasmus Mundus Quality Assessment" and improve your Excellence.
 EMQA is a participatory approach to quality assurance that has been built since 2008 for the European Commission DG Education and Culture Erasmus Mundus Master and Doctoral Joint Programmes. EMQA is not a standard QA process of judging or ranking courses against a fixed set of ‘standards’. The underlying principle is that international programmes are innovating constantly and that this innovation needs to be communicated directly back to the HE sector. EMQA is a strongly participatory approach to excellence. The resources on this Web site can be used by any international programme – Master, Doctoral, Professional, or Commercial – to help you to review your own quality against a structured set of quality components drawn from Higher Education across the European Union. On this site you can:
1- Understand the 'landscape' of quality challenges that international programmes encounter;
2- Self-assess your own courses or programmes against a series of structured questions;
3- See in detail examples of excellent practice from programmes studied in depth since 2008;
4- Read online, and download, a Handbook of Excellence that guides you through the issues you need to consider when creating Master and Doctoral Programmes;
5- Contribute your own excellent practice and add to the body of evidence that will continue to develop the 'components of excellence'.
