With this quality assurance policy for teach ing and learning at Aarhus University, we have charted a value-based course for the development of AU’s degree programmes. This quality assurance policy is ambitious and should be understood as the set of values that AU strives to make the hallmark of our degree programmes.

The policy is student-centric, which means that the primary focus is on what kind of university we want our students to encounter and engage in, from the perspective of the upper secondary student through all phases of the university career, from orientation through graduation and gaining a foothold on the job market.

It is crucial that AU’s degree programmes are characterised by disciplinary excellence as well as an engaging learning environment. Our graduates make important contributions to society. By offering degree programmes at the highest international level, we want to help our graduates develop themselves both academically and personally and to acquire the skills associated with a formative university education. We want our graduates to become responsible citizens of society, who, with their knowledge, independence, curiosity, drive and reflection are able to excel professionally, create attractive jobs and contribute to an enlightened society.
