Reviews

Cyclical reviews of our programs and faculties are an integral part of Dalhousie’s academic quality assurance framework. Reviews ensure that our academic offerings meet both our internal standards and the standards set by external governing bodies.

Accreditation

In addition to Dalhousie's internal quality assurance processes, some academic programs are subject to accreditation by professional bodies at the national or international levels. These bodies provide rigorous quality assurance to ensure that graduates will meet specific educational and competency requirements within their chosen profession.
