
The IEQAS is aimed at fortifying domestic universities’ management skills
of international students by suggesting ideal standards for the recruitment
and management of the foreign students.
 Content

Four-year universities with 20 or more foreign students and two-year junior
colleges with 10 or more international students are subject to the evaluation
in terms of ratio of full-time international faculty; ratio of outbound students;
ratio of international students filling the student quota of universities [Ratio
of international students x (multiply) Ratio of domestic students filling the
quota]; and the drop-out rate of international students. After the evaluation,
those institutions will be accredited or face various disadvantages.
 Follow-up measure

Tertiary institutions received accreditation with a good results will have
IEQAS mark and more chances to benefit from the Global Korea
Scholarship. For those with issues found will face disadvantages such as
restriction on issuance of visa for undergraduate students.
www.seoultech.ac.kr
…Cont’d
 Assessment methods for IEQAS 2012
 Qualification
 In principle, any higher education institution can apply for the

restricted financial funding for 2013; 20% or more of the dropout
rate of the international students; or small number of foreign
students (university with less than 20 students, junior college with
less than 10 students).
 IEQAS accreditation using quantitative and qualitative
indicators
 IEQAS certified means more chances to benefit from the
Global Korea Scholarship program by suggesting ideal
standards for the recruitment and management of the
international students.
