Quality

The self-evaluation of the functioning of SFU Ljubljana is carried out in cooperation with the professional services and the management of the Faculty. All employees are involved in specific issues.

Students also participate in the self-evaluation process by preparing an annual self-evaluation report on their work, and as members of working bodies, they participate in the discussion of the reports and in the adoption of decisions on the necessary measures to be taken. They are also involved in the process of reforming the delivery of study programmes. They assess the quality of teaching staff, organisation, facilities and equipment and other staff through student surveys.

For the quality control and the cooperation between SFU Vienna and SFU Ljubljana, a special department at SFU Vienna was established. The secretary’s office for foreign language education and Student office of SFU Ljubljana are responsible for constant flow of information on the administrative level.

SFU has its own "quality management" (Qualitätsmanagement) system.
