Quality Assurance

Quality assurance is an essential component of the University of Arts Linz’s international activities. The Erasmus Program sets mandatory rules in the Erasmus Charter. The University of Arts Linz applies these guidelines and regulations to all mobility programs.

The principle of equal treatment applies, taking into account the eligibility requirements (published on the respective websites) as well as the general conditions of the degree program, the host teaching and training department, and the respective exchange program.

OUTGOING STUDENT MOBILITY

  • In addition, Academic administrators and thesis advisors for students participating in exchange programs review the relevance of the study abroad experience and the student’s academic progress.
  • Academic administrators review and approve whether the application for the planned mobility aligns with the intended semester. After internal allocation to a partner university, they confirm the planned course of study or internship program, thereby ensuring the quality of the selection.
  • Thesis advisors (BA/MA/Diploma/PhD) confirm the relevance of the study abroad period and, after the mobility period, the progress made.

INCOMING STUDENT MOBILITY

  • In addition, Academic administrators and thesis supervisors for students participating in exchange programs review the relevance of the study abroad experience and the student’s academic progress.
  • The responsible vice-rector decides on allocation to a field of study.
  • Academic administrators review and confirm the selected study program for the planned mobility, thereby ensuring the quality of the selection. 

OUTGOING STAFF MOBILITY

  • In addition, the respective supervisor reviews the relevance of the mobility as part of the business trip approval process.
  • The responsible Vice Rector also reviews and confirms the selected teaching or learning program for the planned mobility, thereby ensuring the quality of the selection.  

INCOMING STAFF MOBILITY

  • In addition, the relevant department or contact person reviews the relevance of the mobility as part of the approval process.
  • The relevant department or contact person reviews and confirms the selected teaching or learning program for the planned mobility, thereby ensuring the quality of the selection.

These processes constitute the binding quality assurance standards for mobility management by the International Office.
