The Faculty of Arts, Assiut University has been recently
accredited by the National Authority for Quality Assurance and Accreditation of
Education (NAQAAE) to become the eighth Faculty in the university after the
Faculties of Science, Engineering, Vet Medicine, Medicine, Agriculture, and
Education.
On this occasion, Prof. Moatamid A. A. Soliman, Dean of the
Faculty of Arts indicated that the resolution of accreditation comes with such a
great honor since the Faculty of Arts, Assiut University is the first Faculty in
the entire Arts Sector of the Egyptian Universities to obtain academic
accreditation; a contribution that adds to the remarkable achievements of the
university. Prof. Soliman added that the endeavor to get accreditation started
in 2007 with the Faculty winning a QAAP project aiming at developing the
academic programs of the Faculty and establishing an inner system for Quality
Assurance. This was followed by another CIQAP project in 2009 to carry out the
work for qualifying the faculty for accreditation by developing its
infrastructure side by side with necessary improvement of its educational
efficiency. The Faculty of Arts, the Dean added, is distinguished among its
peers by a number of privileges including its effective centers and private
units which provide services to the university and the entire community.
