1/4      Programme Board Meeting Minutes form May 2024 version
1. Evaluate the past year of the degree programme implementation (e.g. admissions, academic failure, final state examinations, internationalization). If the degree programme includes a distance or combined study plan, also focus on evaluating these plans. Please specifically address the results of the student quality assessment (subject survey and other instruments), what measures have been taken, and with what results.
The Chairman presented assessment of the last year:
1. Entry requirements and admissions data - the Board noted positive trend in No. of applications. Further growth is expected.
2. No. of students and their study results - the Board noted positive numbers of students and their ability to advance in their studies. The Board focused on trends in applications from individual countries and more detailed statistics incl. of applications / admissions / enrollment ratios.
3. Quality of courses and teaching - report on the results of the university course poll showed around average results for most courses. The Board noted several below-average ratings and discussed these (the Board discussed issues with Mathematics course in particular).
4. Successful graduation of first regular cohort of students was noted.
2. Describe the significant and non-significant changes in the degree programme during the last evaluation period (typically since the previous Programme Board meeting).
There were no significant changes in the program during the period under review.
The board discussed and agreed to several minor changes including appointments of new course guarantors and shifting courses to different semesters - as per the attachment.
3. Describe the extent to which the objectives have been achieved, evaluate the development plan you have drawn up during the last evaluation and formulate the goals for the next period.
As this is still a new programme, the focus was on successful first run of the programme. Our major goals for the last period were focused on successful realization of last phases of the programme especially bachelor thesis and final exams.
The Board noted the first regular cohort alumni who graduated June 2024 and discussed opportunities to keep in touch with them.
The board noted positive trend in rising number of applications we have continued to reach the target numbers of students (1 seminar group) in the programme. During their discussion, Board members reiterated the need for continued efforts to attract the best quality applicants during the period of increasing student numbers. Option for just 1 intake every academic year (instead of current two intakes) was discussed again, as we have been able to fill the target number of enrolled students with just one intake this year.
The programme will be subject to internal evaluation and assessment in the near future (as per the quality assurance plan) This will present opportunity to discuss in greater detail the current situation with

teachers, students and our new alumni, assess the situation and formulate further development plans for the programme.
4. If lifelong learning programmes (LLL) are associated with the degree programme, evaluate the past year of implementation and describe changes and plans for further development of the LLL programme based on participant feedback.
No LLL are associated with the degree programme.
5. Comments and observations beyond the above topics. None.
