The committee reviewed the requirements of the standard and the main performance indicators that require institutional accreditation, including the standard indicators of colleges and programs at the University. The most prominent recommendations that the committee came up with included the establishment of four sub-committees that collect the scientific production published in colleges in order to complete the value of the indicators.
