Project duration: 15.10.12-14.10.15
Priority:
Management reform: Introduction of quality assurance
(regional and national priorities for Structural dimensions for all the countries of Central Asia).
Project coordinator: University of Florence (Italy)
Financing: 1 105 793,64 (EUR)
The general objective of the project:
Create and start the implementation of a system for ensuring quality of engineering education in Central Asia with the final accreditation of engineering programs: this system will be based on European (EUR-ACE standards and associated quality requirements and procedures and will have an advantage experience in European higher education (through ENAEE) and efforts in Kazakhstan (KazSEE).
Main objectives of the project:
1. Creation of communities on engineering education (in Kazakhstan – strengthening KazSEE) and Regional Federation of EES in Central Asia partnership with SEFI and IFEES.
2. Establishment of national technical accreditation centres able to conduct a technical accreditation in the respective country (Regional coordination)
3. Adaptation to Central Asia European EUR-ACE standards and procedures
4. Conduct several trial accreditations for testing of the first projects CAEAS.
5. Formulation of technical Standards accreditation Central Asia (CAEAS) in Russian and English languages.
6. Holding of the first testing of the (real) accreditation of engineering programs throughout Central Asia.
Secondary goals of the project:
