The Faculty of Humanities is currently in the process of accrediting the following degree programmes: Bachelor's Degree in Humanities and Cultural Studies and the University Master’s Degree in Cultural Management. This process is described in the Framework for the Verification, Monitoring, Modification and Accreditation of official degree programmes (MVSMA) established by the Catalan University Quality Assurance Agency (AQU).

On 19 November, an External Assessment Committee set up by AQU Catalunya will visit UIC Barcelona in order to assess the development of the degree programme in situ. Specifically, the purpose of the accreditation visit is:

• to ensure the quality of the academic programmes offered, according to the levels of qualification established and the criteria of the regulations in force;
• to guarantee that there is viable and reliable information which helps in the decisions of the users of the university system, and
• to facilitate the internal processes aimed at improving the quality of the programmes and services available at Catalan universities.

The autonomous report carried out and presented during the accreditation process, will be made available to the wider educational community on UIC Barcelona's Educational Standards webpage. Anyone wishing to view the report and comment on it, may do so. Comments should be sent to the following email address: siqe@uic.es.

On the other hand, among the different planned hearings, a public hearing has been arranged where all those interested in expressing their opinion on the development of the following degrees can attend: Bachelor’s Degree in Humanities and Cultural Studies and University Master’s Degree in Cultural Management

The public hearing will take place on 19 November at 4.30 p.m. in the Sala de Rectorado on the Barcelona campus.
