Quality Framework

Quality assurance is an integral part of the educational culture at the Macao Polytechnic University (MPU). The University expects all its staff and students to participate in the quality assurance process and feel ownership of it. The framework for maintaining academic standards and quality of learning opportunities provides a wide range of opportunities for them to participate in the academic management of the University. The quality culture is based on collegiality, acceptance of responsibility and self-respect.
