SIUC Accreditations | 618-453-7653 | Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs | SIU

Accreditation is a distinguished mark of excellence that affords external recognition of an organization's commitment to quality and improvement. Accreditation has two fundamental purposes; to assure quality and to assure improvement. A further benefit to the accredited program is broader recognition in the academic community and the professional field. Employers can be assured that graduates of accredited programs are fully qualified for entry level positions.

All externally accredited programs at SIUC are required to inform the APAP Office on the status of accreditation, including any changes to accreditation, reports submitted, and on-site visits. For questions or to request information regarding SIUC and program accreditations, please call 618-453-7653 or email apap@siu.edu.
