Since its creation, the audit and quality assurance office at AUL University is working on monitoring and enhancing the teaching, research, and student services at AUL. The office is making sure that the levels of all academic and administrative units at the university are up to the expected level of all stakeholders (students, faculty, instructors, alumni, administration, and community).

One of the first steps of the audit and quality assurance office was to get the ISO 9001:2008 certification for its processes, thus ensuring that its operations meet international standards.

Our office will remain keen to provide the best for our students and faculty in order to improve their experience and level of education so as to be up to the national and international standards and requirements of the continuously changing workplace and to be active members in their community.

We also monitor the quality of teaching and research. Getting international accreditation of university academic departments is currently a high priority. The efforts done in this direction have resulted in many international agreements for the exchange of students with leading universities in France, UK, Russia, and the USA. Moreover; the department of computer and communication engineering has been awarded the European accreditation for engineering programs label (EUR-ACE). We are currently working on getting similar accreditations for the other academic departments and for the university as a whole from well-known European and American accreditation agencies.
