Abstract
The exponential growth of private higher education in Mexico,
especially over the last 30 years, has also raised questions about
the level of quality offered by some of the professional oriented
graduate programs. In order to know how these universities handle
quality, this paper collected opinions from four academic administrators
interviewed in three private universities in the State of
Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Their points of view expressed concerns
around the parameters used by Conacyt to assess quality among
professional oriented graduate programs. The major areas of disagreement
were related to assumptions dealing with the production
of knowledge and the requirements for professors and students to
be part of an accredited program. Possible alternatives concerning
the actual model for assessing quality are given and discussed.
