Abstract

In recent years, the issue regarding the quality of higher education has been discussed actively, and program accreditation by local and foreign authorities has become a common issue. The purpose of this research is to study some of the issues encountered in the process of national accreditation of bachelor’s degree programs based on the practice of 4 state-owned universities. Through the usage of the numerical survey method, 10 groups of 39 questionnaires were developed based on common accreditation criteria and requirements for the curriculum approved by the Mongolian National Council for Education Accreditation (MNCEA), and study data were collected using printed materials and Google forms, and analysis was performed by using Microsoft Excel and SPSS. Study results show that the development, planning, and implementation of professional programs and activities aimed at teachers and students are reasonable and good. However, despite the legal framework for program accreditation, there is a need to improve the planning and allocation of appropriate incentive mechanisms, increase the budget and resources needed for the successful implementation of the program, and continuously improve funding and the materialistic environment for training and research. At the same time, it is important to plan appropriate steps for the collaboration of stakeholders that will result in change management practice. Although the internal quality assurance process is merely starting at the departmental or unit level, and internal policy and legal environment are in place, performance and implementation are insufficient by periodic planning, and no further steps are yet taken or need to be improved.
