Abstract

The USTA, committed to excellence and in coherence with the collegiate work between its headquarters, sectional offices and the General Vice-rector of Open and Distance University -VUAD-, seeks to ensure its positioning and visibility in the national and international context. In this sense, line 4 of the Comprehensive Multicampus Plan -PIM-: "Regional enrichment of programs with common standards", aims to consolidate the high-quality academic offer of the USTA, based on the unification of curricula, promoting strengths and taking advantage of regional resources, experiences and opportunities, therefore, the General Academic Vice President -VAG- in a national commitment to guarantee common study plans, led to the unification of the 28 academic programs with the same name. In accordance with what was outlined in the PIM, the VAG designed two routes that would contribute to the achievement of the USTA curricular commitment with common standards. In the case of this research, the implementation of the EXPANDED CURRICULAR COMMITTEE - PHASE II, ACADEMIC-ADMINISTRATIVE ROUTE facilitates the establishment of academic and administrative conditions within the framework of quality assurance. Phase II ACADEMIC-ADMINISTRATIVE ROUTE promotes the interlocution of the different actors and institutional instances and thus constitutes a new challenge for the leaders of the academic-administrative management of the programs. To date, 3 of the 17 programs that have already successfully completed Phase I are advancing in Phase II.
