HCERES Evaluation Report

The E-PiCo+ Consortium mandated the HCERES (High Council for the Evaluation of Research and Higher Education) to conduct an evaluation in line with the European Approach for Quality Assurance of Joint Diplomas, which ensures that joint programmes meet high academic standards across partner institutions and countries.

This approach promotes mutual trust, transparency, and recognition within the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) by allowing a single evaluation procedure to replace multiple national accreditations. It simplifies quality assurance for international joint degrees while upholding excellence, comparability, and international cooperation in higher education.

The complete report can be downloaded here on the HCERES website.
