ShareFavourable report on the accreditation of ten doctoral programmes from the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya
These doctoral programmes will be taught at Universitat de Politècnica de Catalunya's Doctoral School.
One of AQU Catalunya's many functions is the accreditation of university degree programmes, i.e. verification based on an external visit that the degree programme is being carried out as planned. This is a process that all official university degrees must go through within six years of their initial validation or last accreditation. For this reason, the doctoral programmes in Photonics; in Computational and Applied Physics; in Supply Chain and Operations Management; in Signal Theory and Communication; in Telematics; in Electronic Engineering; in Aerospace Science and Technology; in Optical Engineering; in Textile and Paper Engineering; and in Mechanical Engineering, Fluids and Aeronautics have recently undergone the accreditation process.
The Specific commission for doctorate programmes of the Institutional and Programme Review Commission issued favourable reports on the operation of the doctorate programmes, following external visits to demonstrate the proper functioning of these degrees.
The reports on the doctoral programmes can be found on the EUC Reports portal:
Doctoral School
Doctorate in Computational and Applied Physics
Doctorate in Supply Chain and Operations Management
Doctorate in Signal Theory and Communication
Doctorate in Electronic Engineering
Doctorate in Aerospace Science and Technology
Doctorate in Optical Engineering

AQU Catalunya has sent these reports to the Spanish Universities Council, which will resolve the process with the corresponding accreditation. Once the accreditation process is complete, AQU Catalunya will publish the results and issue the quality label and certificate of accreditation for the degree programmes, which can be consulted on EUC Studies, the web portal with all the information on the quality of official university degree programmes offered in Catalonia.
