UZAcademic Quality Assurance
At Inha University in Tashkent (IUT), Academic Quality Assurance is an integrated institutional system that ensures academic excellence, continuous improvement, and compliance with international academic standards throughout the entire student lifecycle-from Student Admission to the Awarding of Degree.
The University’s quality assurance system is founded on the principles of academic integrity, evidence-based decision-making, stakeholder engagement, transparency, accountability, and Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI). These principles are embedded in all academic processes to ensure that educational quality is continuously monitored, evaluated, and enhanced while maintaining academic standards equivalent to those of Inha University (Republic of Korea).
The Academic Quality Assurance Model integrates all key academic processes into a unified quality management cycle, including curriculum development, syllabus design, teaching and learning, assessment, Student Performance Analysis (including Learning Outcomes Achievement), course evaluation, Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI), academic monitoring, and graduation verification. This systematic approach enables the University to make informed academic decisions based on reliable evidence and to implement continuous improvements at both course and institutional levels.
As an integral component of its quality assurance system, IUT undergoes annual External Academic Monitoring conducted by Inha University (Republic of Korea). The monitoring process includes a comprehensive review of Course Portfolios, syllabi, teaching and assessment materials, Student Performance Analysis (including Learning Outcomes Achievement), Course CQI Reports, academic governance, and interviews with faculty members and students. The findings are documented in formal Review Reports, which provide recommendations for quality enhancement and serve as the basis for institutional planning and Continuous Quality Improvement initiatives.
To ensure academic equivalency with the partner university, IUT regularly conducts curriculum alignment, programme reviews, and Educational Equivalency Tests. In addition, graduation requirements are verified by Inha University (Republic of Korea) before degrees are awarded, ensuring that graduates meet the academic standards and quality requirements established by the partner institution.
Through this integrated Academic Quality Assurance Framework, IUT continuously enhances the quality of its academic programmes, strengthens faculty development, improves student performance and learning outcomes, and fosters a sustainable culture of quality that supports the University’s Strategic Development Plan and reinforces its international academic reputation.

As the representative of the partner university for academic quality, Dr. Shin oversees the implementation of academic quality assurance policies and ensures that the University’s curricula, teaching, assessment, academic governance, and quality assurance processes remain aligned with the academic standards and quality requirements of Inha University (Republic of Korea).
He actively participates in annual External Academic Monitoring, curriculum and programme reviews, quality assurance evaluations, and Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) initiatives. Through his academic leadership and strategic guidance, IUT maintains academic equivalency with Inha University (Republic of Korea) while continuously strengthening the quality, effectiveness, and international competitiveness of its educational programmes.
Academic Quality Assurance at IUT is a continuous and evidence-based process that integrates internal quality assurance, external academic monitoring, and Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) to ensure academic excellence, institutional effectiveness, and international academic standards from student admission to graduation.
The Academic Quality Assurance Framework serves as the University’s institutional quality management system across all academic programmes.

Korean Degree Programmes are monitored by Inha University (Republic of Korea), British Programmes are delivered in accordance with the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF) in collaboration with IQAC and partner universities in the United Kingdom, while joint and double degree programmes follow the academic quality assurance requirements established by the respective partner institutions.
