The Education Committee works with three top educational priorities:
Quality in education takes place in the encounter between the student, the teacher and the subject. With an ambition to improve the quality of our degree programmes, we focus on how teachers approach this encounter, how the quality of the encounter is measured, how the encounter can be further developed, and how management can contribute to optimising the the encounter.
We work in different ways to encourage students to put more time and energy into their studies. This requires us to focus on both on students at risk of dropping out, as well as exceptionally talented students, and generally on ensuring a good academic environment and engaging courses for all students.
The focus on a better match is about improving the match between students and their degree programmes, ensuring that potential students make the right choice of degree programme and get off to a good start. The goal is also to ensure a better match between graduates and the labour market in order to ensure a smoother transition from student to professional life.
Meeting schedule and meeting material
Other regular participants are the deputy director and division manager from AU Student Administration and Services and a special consultant from the Rector’s Office.
Administrative support is provided by the Rector’s Office in collaboration with AU Student Administration and Services and the faculty secretariats.
