The Department was created in DSUM in January 2019 in implementation of the international project ERASMUS + “Implementation of Education Quality Assurance System via Cooperation of University- Business-Government in HEIs (EDUQAS)”. The aim of the project is to improve education quality assurance systems through the development of efficient internal quality standards. The internal QA system will be based on needs and capacities analysis in Kazakh and Ukrainian HEIs, experiences and best practices from the successful QA action line of the Bologna Process.
The project provided the established quality assurance department and its laboratory with equipment (16 computers, 7 laptops, printer, multimedia projectors)
