ZEvA’s evaluation reports (only available in German language) aim at making evaluation transparent. They are directed at higher education institutions, institutions of higher education administration, the government of the federal state and members of parliament, as well as interested persons from science and industry. In this way, higher education institutions enter into a dialogue with politics and society about the quality of tertiary education.
An evaluation report consists of the expert report generated by the group of peer reviewers, a statement by the evaluated institution and details on the members of the peer group. Reports regarding subject evaluations in Lower Saxony usually refer to several evaluated institutions or to several different branches of the same institution.
