Ensuring academic excellence at CEPT University

By Fostering Cooperation

•  A number of presently separate graduate programs will be

consolidated

•  These consolidated programs will be cooperatively managed; key graduate-level foundation courses will be cooperatively taught

•  Many foundation level undergraduate courses, which are mandatory requirements in multiple faculties and presently taught separately will be consolidated and hosted by one faculty

•  Research centers in the CEPT University Collaborative will foster joint work research projects

By Promoting Competition

•  Continuance of programs/majors will depend primarily on levels of

student registrations

•  Faculties budgets will depend directly on the number of students (from other faculties) registered with them

•  Research grants will be allocated only through competitive selection procedures

By Seeking and Providing Feedback

•  Student feedback will provide key inputs for course and faculty

appraisals

•  Faculties and programs will systematically seek international accreditation

•  Alumni inputs will be actively sought

emerging picture of the University, is being developed

•  Incremental upgrading of furniture and facilities is underway

•  Space is being added by accessing existing buildings
