The present dissertation addresses the manifold legal aspects of the administrative and constitutional problems of accreditation in German institutions of higher education. Issues are raised in respect to well-known questions concerning the legal nature of accreditation, as well as to the related encroachment upon fundamental rights. Furthermore, new challenges such as system accreditation and the seldom debated issues concerning the contractual relationships of the involved parties, or the democratic legitimation of the accreditation administration and the legal nature of its decisions are discussed. The study also draws comparisons to similarly structured areas of law - in so doing, further questions of modernisation in higher education, the debate surrounding privatisation and legal aspects of the administrative organisation are commented on. Die Akkreditierung von Studiengängen bietet auch fast 15 Jahre nach ihrer Einführung politisch wie juristisch beträchtlichen Anlass zur Diskussion. Die stetige Fortentwicklung des Akkreditierungsverfahrens, die zunehmende Bedeutung von Qualitätssicherung sowie die immer wieder auffl ammende Debatte um den Bologna-Prozess sorgen dafür, dass das Thema aktuell und lebendig bleibt. Die vorliegende Dissertation widmet sich neben der hochschulpolitischen Entwicklung den vielfältigen verwaltungs- und verfassungsrechtlichen Problemen des Akkreditierungswesens an deutschen Hochschulen. Dabei kommen zum einen altbekannte Fragen zur Rechtsnatur der Akkreditierung oder dem Grundrechtseingriff durch die Akkreditierungspfl icht zur Sprache. Des Weiteren geht es aber auch um neue Herausforderungen wie die Systemakkreditierung und um bisher nur wenig erörterte Themen wie die Vertragsverhältnisse der Beteiligten, die demokratische Legitimation der Akkreditierungsverwaltung sowie die Rechtsnatur ihrer Beschlüsse. Außerdem zieht die Arbeit systematische Vergleiche zu Rechtsgebieten mit ähnlichen Strukturen; dabei nimmt sie u.a. Stellung zu weiteren Fragen der Hochschulmodernisierung, der Privatisierungsdebatte und des Verwaltungsorganisationsrechts.

The validation of analytical methods is based on the characterisation of a measurement procedure (selectivity, sensitivity, repeatability, reproducibility). This volume collects 31 outstanding papers on the topic, mostly published in the period 2000-2003 in the journal ""Accreditation and Quality Assurance"". They provide the latest understanding, and possibly the rationale why it is important to integrate the concept of validation into the standard procedures of every analytical laboratory. In addition, this anthology considers the benefits to both: the analytical laboratory and the user of t
