什么是认证?
根据 U.S. 教育部, "the goal of accreditation is to ensure that education provided by institutions of higher education meets acceptable levels of quality. 认证机构, which are private educational associations of regional or national scope, develop evaluation criteria and conduct peer evaluations to assess whether or not those criteria are met. Institutions and/or programs that request an agency's evaluation and that meet an agency's criteria are then "accredited" by that agency."
From which agencies does SHSU seek/hold accreditation?
SHSU seeks accreditation both for the institution as a whole and for specific degree programs. Institutional accreditation is subject to the institution meeting and remaining in compliance with the accrediting standards of the Southern Association of 大学 and Schools Commission on 大学 (SACSCOC), a recognized regional accrediting body in the eleven U.S. 南部各州(阿拉巴马州), 佛罗里达, 乔治亚州, 肯塔基州, 路易斯安那州, 密西西比州, 北卡罗莱纳, 南卡罗来纳, 田纳西州, Texas and Virginia) and in Latin America for those institutions of higher education that award associate, 学士学位, master's or doctoral degrees. Program specific accreditations are discipline and agency specific. A complete listing of accreditations held by SHSU is available on the University/Program 认证评估 网页.
What are SACSCOC accrediting standards?
The Commission on 大学 bases its accreditation of degree-granting higher education institutions and entities on requirements in the Principles of 认证: Foundations for Quality Enhancement. These requirements apply to all institutional programs and services, regardless of location or delivery method.
