harmonizing study programs is underway in accordance with the <strong>Accreditation Rules of UPJ\u0160 and SAAV\u0160 standards<\/strong>. The creation and provision of study programs at UPJ\u0160 is carried out on the basis of adopted rules of the <strong>Internal Quality System of Higher Education<\/strong> (VSK) and on the basis of declared mission and strategic goals in the <strong>Long-term development plan of UPJ\u0160<\/strong>. and the quality of the university&#8217;s support activities is coordinated by the Internal <strong>Quality Verification Board<\/strong>. The quality of study programs at I., II. and joined I. and II. levels are provided and verified by the <strong>Study Programme Board<\/strong>. The quality of study programs at the 3rd, doctoral, level level is ensured by the Trade Unions of study fields. (S 2.1, S 2.2) <strong>Students, graduates, other relevant persons and employers are an inseparable part of the process of ensuring and verifying the quality of study programmes<\/strong>. (S 2.3, W 2.4.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The structure of the offer and the content of individual study programmes, which are always assigned to the field of study and level of education, are created in relation to the <strong>profile of graduates<\/strong> and in accordance with the Internal Quality Assurance and Verification System at UPJ\u0160. The aim is to clarify and simplify the creation of the process of original and attractive study programmes that reflect social needs as well as current trends in science, research and art. <strong>The internationalization<\/strong> and opening of the university to the outside world is transformed into the creation of study programs in foreign languages, or study programs completed with a <strong>double<\/strong> or joint diploma. (S 2.5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In accordance with the graduate profile, verifiable <strong>educational outcomes<\/strong> are defined and communicated through <strong>indicators for quality assessment at UPJ\u0160<\/strong>. The outputs correspond to the mission, the relevant level of the qualification framework and the area of knowledge according to the relevant field of study. The study program is assigned to the field of study and level of education, while the degree of its content with the relevant fields of study and the level of qualification corresponding to the relevant level of education according to the <strong>National Qualifications Framework of the Slovak Republic<\/strong> with a link to the European Qualifications Framework for lifelong learning is always justified. (S 2.6,2.7, S 2.8)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study programme <strong>indicates professions<\/strong> for the performance of which the acquired qualification is required, while emphasis is placed on the applicability of graduates in the given field of study. UPJ\u0160 applies the <strong>statistical classification of occupations SK ISCO-08<\/strong> to indicate the professions for which the student is prepared after completing the study programme,&nbsp; according to Z.z. no. 384\/2015. (S 2.8.) The Council of the study programme is also composed of experts from practice, which also takes into account the requirement of employers for graduates of our university (S 2.9, S 2.11).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All study programmes provided by the university have the declared content, structure and sequence of subjects and educational activities, standard length of study and conditions for successful completion of the study in the Description of the study programme, Recommended study plan and Course information sheets. Study programmes have a <strong>clearly defined level and nature of creative activities<\/strong> required for successful completion of studies, especially in relation to the final work. Accredited study programmes guarantee access to up-to-date knowledge, <strong>skills and competences<\/strong>, including <strong>transferable competences<\/strong>, which influence students&#8217; personal development and can be used in their future careers and in life as active citizens in democratic societies.
