Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB), Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS), organized an International Seminar entitled \u201cAACSB Accreditation and Quality Assurance\u201d on Monday, May 25, 2026, at UNS Inn. The event was conducted in a hybrid format, inviting virtual speakers from Universiti Putra Malaysia, while the on-site proceedings were attended by the faculty leaders, heads of study programs, lecturers, administrative staff, and various stakeholders involved in developing higher education quality assurance within FEB UNS.<\/p>\n
This international seminar represents one of FEB UNS’s strategic initiatives to reinforce its institutional quality assurance system while supporting the progression toward international accreditation from the AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business). The AACSB is recognized as one of the most prestigious business accreditation bodies globally, evaluating the quality of educational institutions based on international standards in governance, learning, research, institutional impact, and human resource development.<\/p>\n
Through this agenda, FEB UNS aims to cultivate a comprehensive understanding regarding the implementation of effective and sustainable quality assurance in both academic and non-academic sectors. The seminar also served as a forum for discussion to share experiences, strategies, and best practices in addressing the challenges of international accreditation within an increasingly competitive and globalized higher education landscape.<\/p>\n
Tastafiyan Risfandy, SE., MSc., Ph.D., Vice Dean for Student and Alumni Affairs FEB UNS, expressed his appreciation in his welcoming remarks to all parties who supported the preparation of the international seminar. He emphasized that fostering a robust culture of quality is an essential foundation for developing a higher education institution that is both excellent and adaptive to global transformations.<\/p>\n
\u201cThank you for attending this seminar, and for the support of all parties who have facilitated the implementation of this event. This seminar serves as a pivotal momentum for FEB UNS to continuously learn and reinforce institutional quality in meeting international accreditation standards,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, he explained that quality assurance serves more than accreditation documentation; rather, it reflects an institutional commitment to creating an educational framework that is high-quality, transparent, accountable, and oriented toward continuous improvement.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe hope that through this activity, FEB UNS can acquire diverse insights and strategic inputs regarding the preparation toward AACSB Accreditation and quality assurance to support sustainable academic and non-academic quality enhancement,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
During the seminar, participants gained multi-dimensional perspectives on the importance of sound institutional governance, the enhancement of outcome-based curricula, the advancement of research quality and scientific publications, the competency development of faculty and administrative staff, and the vital role of international collaboration in bolstering global university competitiveness.<\/p>\n
Aside from it\u2019s main objective as a platform for institutional capacity building, this international seminar reaffirms FEB UNS’s commitment to creating an innovative, inclusive, and globally-oriented higher education ecosystem. The pursuit of AACSB accreditation is expected to elevate the faculty’s international reputation while unlocking broader opportunities for collaboration with global educational institutions and industries.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Through this seminar, FEB UNS envisions the continuous reinforcement of a quality-driven culture within the university environment, driving sustainable improvements in educational services, and producing graduates who are competent, adaptive, and globally competitive.<\/p>\n
This initiative also constitutes part of FEB UNS’s contribution toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 4 (Quality Education) and Goal 16 (Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions), by fostering strong, effective, transparent, and accountable institutional frameworks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
