我國高等教育品質保證制度

The Quality Assurance System of Higher Education in Taiwan

我國高等教育品質保證制度主要是透過評鑑方式實施，而且受到高等教育「雙軌制」的影響，一般大學校院與技職大專校院之評鑑是採取不同的方式，且由教育部分別委託不同單位—財團法人高等教育評鑑中心基金會、臺灣評鑑協會—辦理。本文主要是採文件分析法及文獻探討進行，全文分為四小節。首先，本文將簡扼釐清有關高等教育品質保證之概念意涵；其次，第二小節將說明我國一般大學校院及技專校院評鑑制度之建置與重要沿革；另在第三小節分析我國高等教育品質保證制度未來可能之走向後；第四小節即歸納做簡要的結語。
