On 23 May, the Institute of Medicine held a quality assessment discussion with the participation of the Deputy Director for international students of the Institute N. Martirosyan, teachers, students, Vice-Rector H. Kazhoyan, Development and Education Quality Assurance Coordinator M. Hovhannisyan, and Monitoring and Evaluation Officer student Y. Hovhannisyan. The participants discussed their standards-related observations. They proposed to more intensively involve external stakeholders and specialists, e.g., young doctors, to replenish the library with new literature, use gamification in lessons, organize a preparatory course admission, create conditions for professional and pedagogical training for teachers, strengthen the connection with alumni, expand public services, etc.
Also, engagement, motivation, and appreciation of the hourly paid teachers and external stakeholders in the development of study programmes, education quality assurance activities and fostering the culture of academic integrity were also discussed.
The annual self-assessment cycle aims to identify strengths and weaknesses and make improvements.
