ACCUA issues favourable reports for all degree proposals from the UHU for the 2026/2027 academic year

These include two bachelor's degrees, one in Cultural Management and another in Law, and a joint master's degree with UMA on Advanced Practice Nursing

The Agency for Scientific and University Quality of Andalusia (ACCUA) has issued favourable final reports for the three degree programmes presented by the University of Huelva for verification and implementation in the upcoming 2026/27 academic year. Their implementation is only pending final approval by the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, which must now issue its decision, now that these reports have been sent to it today.

Thus, the University of Huelva will be able to implement, pending final approval by the Ministry, the bachelor's degrees in Cultural Management and in Law. Additionally, the academic institution has presented a joint master's degree with the University of Málaga, specifically in Advanced Practice Nursing in Chronicity and Dependency Care, which will be coordinated by the Huelva-based institution.

The final evaluation reports issued by ACCUA culminate an evaluation process regulated by state legislation and in accordance with European standards for university quality assurance, in which a provisional report is first issued, detailing the strengths and weaknesses of each degree, with specific mention of those deficiencies that must be corrected in order to obtain a favourable report. Universities are then given a period of fifteen working days to correct the identified deficiencies and make any submissions they deem appropriate, after which the expert committees meet again to issue their final reports.

These final reports are sent to the requesting academic institution, the Regional Ministry of University and the Council of Universities, a body attached to the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities. Ultimately, the Council of Universities is the body responsible for issuing the verification resolution for the degree, taking into account the evaluation report issued by the experts. Likewise, these final reports are published on the Agency's website, as required in compliance with European standards.

The evaluation system applied by ACCUA is endorsed by the European Quality Assurance Register for Higher Education (EQAR), has a favourable report from the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA) and follows the guidelines agreed with the other Spanish agencies within the Spanish Network of University Quality Agencies (REACU), which guarantees that it is a process that ensures rights, is transparent, independent and based exclusively on evidence and technical criteria.
