Based on this vision, relevant goals have been formulated with regard to education, students, staff, and other areas. These goals reflect the further ambition of IBS when it comes to internationalisation. The panel finds that the existing quality evaluation system for the evaluation of the vision is appropriate with the remark that it could be made clearer who is responsible for guarding that the goals are met and how this is done. With regard to the evaluation, the panel also finds that the programme can convey the message more to others. The view of the panel is that the study programme complies with the criteria of standard 1. The panel judges standard I to be good. lnlichtingen An-Sofie Alderweireldt +31 (0) a.alderweireldt@nvao. net Parkstraat JK I Postbus CD Den Haag PO Box CD The Hague lthe Netherlands T + 31 (0) F + 31 (0) info@nvao net I www nvao net

2 Pag na 2 van 5 Sfanda rd 2: Leaming outcomes The panel concludes that there is a further and deepening emphasis on the development of international and intercultural competencies in the structure and execution of the IBMS curriculum in Groningen. Within IBS there is an international teaching and learning environment: the panel flnds that IBS breathes internationally. IBS has defined learning goals (international and intercultural learning outcomes) based on its vision, which can be traced back explicitly to the curriculum. Through different modules and on different levels, students work on the lc. Their international and intercultural competence is assessed per module in different ways, which - in some cases - can be done more explicitly. The panel finds there is sufficient proof that the intended international and intercultural learning outcomes are achieved by the graduates. The panel judges standard 2lobe good. Standañ 3: Teaching and Leaming The panel finds that the structure and content of the curriculum enables students to achieve the lc. lnterviews with students convince the panel that students develop their international and intercultural competences through different modules in a thoughtful way and in a convincing international environment. The panel assesses the working forms and teaching methods positive and appropriate for achieving the aimed at lc. The panel also concludes that the ICLL assures further development of the lc and a proper understanding among all IBS' staff. Furthermore, the panel values the fact that IBS offers appropriate guidance through the academic advisors, which is in line with the vision on international education. The panel finds that the structure and content of the curriculum enables students to achieve the lc. They do so in a convincing international learning environment in which appropriate working forms and teaching methods are used. The panel assesses standard 3 as good. Standañ 4: Staff The study programme has enough teachers to ensure a competent presentation of the study programme. Moreover, the panel is positive about the quality of the teachers, they are well trained, represent international backgrounds and have international work experience, more specifìcally in teaching. The teachers who teach the study programme possess sufflcient international experience. The study programme has sufficient facilities available for teachers to gain experience or follow course for which they might identifu a need. Therefore, the panel judges this criterion to be good. The staff satisfaction has the management's attention and the accessibility of support material from the Hanze University is considered to be a remark that the university should address. The panel finds the quality of the teachers impressive. Their backgrounds reflect a wide variety of international work experience and know-how. ln addition, teachers gain fresh ongoing international experience. The study programme makes sufficient facilities available to teachers who, for example, wish to gain extra experience or follow a course. The panel judges standard 4tobe good.
