Educational quality of the programme
At VUB the quality of the education takes centre stage. This isn't something we say lightly: we scrutinise our programmes regularly to align them with changing student needs in a rapidly changing society.
Accreditation
Based on a positive audit this programme was granted accreditation in the summer of 2026. Read the report of the commission on the accreditation agency's website.
Quality Cycle
Following it's accreditation, the programme will be included in VUB's quality assurance cycle. Each programme follows a six-year quality cycle. The timeline below shows the schedule for this particular programme.
As institution we routinely ask our students to give their honest opinion about the study programme during their academic career. We also consult our professors and assistants and gauge the expectations in the future field of work. We receive structured feedback from our former students and compare our programmes with others at home and abroad. Through a Peer Review every six years an expert panel endorses the programme’s assets and can recommend some actions. Lastly, the Education Quality Council takes a formal decision about the quality and functioning of a programme.
