- Title
The Quality Governance for Accreditation of Master and Doctoral Programmes.

- Abstract
The accreditation of the master and doctoral programmes is the focus of global and European community public policy sectoral networks. The key IGOs and INGOs have developed their own viewpoint concerning the 2nd and 3rd level criteria. The national and specialised agencies act differently: the national agencies cannot meet the public policy criteria concerning measures for value of potential programmes. The specialised agencies are ahead in development of qualitative criteria for 2nd and 3rd level programmes, especially in the business and engineering area, reflecting practice orientation and research criteria. The ESG 2015 makes no distinction between types of programmes and misses the ERA and researcher mobility aspects and EURAXESS criteria for employment skills. The ENQA and ESG 2015 have a negative impact on different agencies (both national and specialised) enforcing silo type accreditation against formal type criteria. In UK's case, the research evaluation was eliminated from the scope of national accreditation agency. The experience in international accreditation reflects the formal silo without reflecting the expectation of a transformative role of 2nd and 3rd level programmes in European Higher Education and Research Area.
