The Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences is currently immersed in the accreditation process for the Bachelor's Degree in Psychology that it offers. 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 29 November an External Evaluation Committee set up by AQU Catalunya will visit UIC Barcelona to evaluate the development of the degree in situ. Specifically, the accreditation visit has the following objectives:
- 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.
Apart from that, among the various types of scheduled audiences, a public hearing will be held that can be attended by anyone who is interested in expressing their opinion about the development of the Bachelor's Degree in Psychology.
The public hearing will take place on 29 November at 3.00 p.m. in the Sala Les Planes meeting room, located on the third floor of the building on the Sant Cugat Campus.
