System and program accreditation at the HNU

All degree programmes at HNU are accredited or undergo initial accreditation within the specified timeframes. Following the establishment of a comprehensive quality management system, HNU was granted unconditional system accreditation by resolution of 27 June 2023. This accreditation is valid until 31 March 2031. During this period, all degree programmes at HNU will have completed the internal accreditation process and will be subject to continuous further development.
The accreditation status of each degree programme can be accessed via the database of the Accreditation Council. This also provides information on the outcomes of the procedures and the reviewers involved.
