Abstract

Quality assurance in higher education continues to be a serious challenge even the significant efforts that have been done to this end. Major strides have been made by Moroccan universities in this field especially since instituting the national agency for evaluation and quality assurance in higher education and scientific research (ANEAQ). However, information system quality (ISQ) is not getting much of officials ‘attention while it is a major vehicle of higher education quality (HEQ). This paper aims to present a theoretical model able to link ISQ to HEQ, using the five IS components namely human resources, hardware, software and applications, procedures and data and the three major parts of HE namely Education, Research and Governance. Each of the five IS components and the three HE parts have a set of measuring quality indicators expressed via the surveys’ questions. Perspectives of all HE intervening are taken into account in order to have more accurate findings on HEQ. For this purpose, adapted surveys for each type of HE intervening are designed. The outcome of this paper is hence an evaluation model with a set of indicators to quantify the quality level of education, research and governance through the measurement of the quality level of the IS ‘components.

Research Contribution: The interest of this research is to raise awareness about the major role played by ISQ within HE institutions and to describe theoretically the impact of ISQ on enhancing HEQ.
