  2. Challenges We Faced with During Accreditation of the Joint Study Programme Regional Development and Governance

  3. Conditions for Accreditation of Master's Degree Study Programme • the supervisor of the programme must have current publications of high quality related to the programme field • in Master study programme, there must be at least 60% of teachers Assoc. professors or Professors • in the Czech rep. these academic titles are subject of the long process of habilitation procedure • compact, coherent and logical content leading to the fulfilment of graduate knowledge portfolio

  4. Conditions for Accreditation of Master's Degree Study Programme • study programme must contain an adequate range of "standard" subjects – e.g. for economic field in terms of economy theory, mathematics and statistics • erudition of all academic staff included in study programme • no special regulation for development of Joint Degrees exists in the Czech Republic

  5. Accreditation Process • the Accreditation Commission meets only three times a year • accreditation material must be submitted three months before the meeting • the accreditation material must be in Czech as well as English language • it must contain summary of publishing activities and quotes from all academic staff involved in the programme

  6. Internal Process of Accreditation • the Faculty prepares the full accreditation material • the accreditation material is approved by Academic Senate and Scientific Council • after the approval, the material is evaluated by Internal Accreditation Committee of University • it is necessary to incorporate all comments – a brief profile of the graduate, clear aims of the programme

  7. External Process of Accreditation • the Accreditation Commission assesses the formal aspects at first • after that two reviews by renowned experts are carried out • on the basis of them the accreditation is discussed in the Economic Committee • if Economic Committee recommends approval then Accreditation Commission accredits the study programme • the accreditation is usually granted for four years • the content (courses) should not be changed more than 20%

  8. Challenges we Faced with • internal: different conception of the programme – missing micro/macroeconomics and mathematics • participation of the appropriate academic staff with good level of English that are also experts in the field which fits to the programme • external: comments from Accreditation Commission regarding detailed explanations of the structure and organisation of study at two universities • time management – rare meetings of commitees
