The Undergraduate Program in Architecture + Professional Program for Architect at Department of Architecture and Planning, Universitas Gadjah Mada complies with the accreditation conditions and procedures presented by the Korea Architectural Accrediting Board (KAAB) and has acquired professional architectural education accreditation. It is a professional degree program recognized simultaneously by the member accrediting bodies of the Canberra Accord and the UNESCO-UIA Validation Council for Architectural Education (UVCAE). Specifying the acquisition of an accredited professional architectural degree as a mandatory qualification for registration with the registration board is an international trend (refer to www.kaab.or.kr): Domestic professional architectural degree programs are operated at the discretion of the educational institution, either as a 5-year undergraduate degree program, an integrated bachelor-master’s degree program, or a graduate degree program of 2 years or more, and must undergo regular accreditation reviews for the continuous maintenance of accreditation. The Korea Architectural Accrediting Board conducts accreditation reviews based on accreditation standards and procedures, and each educational program can receive a 6-year accreditation (5 years for initial accreditation), 4-year: accreditation (3 years for initial accreditation), conditional 3-year accreditation (2 years for initial conditional accreditation), accreditation Deferral, and Denial/Withdrawal. The next accreditation review for the Undergraduate Program in Architecture + Professional Program for Architect at Department of Architecture and Planning, Universitas Gadjah Mada is scheduled to be conducted in year 2026
