About
At the Faculty of Medicine at Al-Baha University, we know that quality in education is based on four basic elements: the educational system and what it includes of the quality of teaching materials and methods, the teacher, the curricula, the administrative system supporting the educational system, the social system of the student and the teacher, and finally the techniques and tools produced by the culture of quality in the educational environment and its role in the process of continuous improvement. The vice deanship is also working hard and diligently to implement the highest standards of quality within the framework of its strategic plan, which is extracted from the university’s strategic plan, to be an effective partner in achieving the Kingdom’s 2030 vision.
The vice dean’s word
The activation of the College Vice Deanship for Quality and Development began with the establishment of the College and the start of the implementation of the study plan. The strategic goal of the vice deanship was to establish and consolidate the concept and methodology of total quality and academic development in the academic, research and administrative wings of the college, which leads to a distinct quality of outputs in education, scientific research and community service.
It also had a future plan to establish and apply qualitative practices to ensure and control quality in order to obtain national and then global academic accreditation.
