Abstract

This paper describes the procedures used to create and adopt the academic degrees granted by the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile.

The paper explains that the University's Higher Council is responsible for instituting academic degrees and, to do so, it has established assessment and analysis procedures. Several of the University's higher academic units are involved in this process: the Office of the Academic Vice-President, academicians from the different schools, and external specialists and national and international peers from outside the university who perform assessments.

The rigorous implementation of these procedures for over twenty years has made it possible to ensure a high degree of quality in the study programs offered. It has also made their implementation feasible.
