WiQu – Impact research on quality assurance of teaching and learning – procedural, structural and personnel causes of quality assurance departments' impact

Dr. Markus Seyfried (University of Potsdam) together with Dr. Philipp Pohlenz (Magdeburg) and Prof. Dr. Udo Kelle (Hamburg)

funded by the BMBF - Duration 2013-2016

The WiQu project team is working on three topics (pillars) dealing with the impacts and effects of quality assurance departments at universities and universities of applied sciences. Quality assurance departments are regarded as more or less institutionalized initiatives in higher education institutions explicitly charged with quality assurance and/or quality development in the area of teaching and learning. This includes functional equivalents as scientific departments, specialist teams, commissions, committees and administrative departments.
