This results showed that the level of compliances were decreased compared to those in 2008 which were 81% (Faculty) and 78% (Department/SP). These results were caused by nonconformities between academic standards established by faculty and standard achievement report of unit academic. Therefore, an understanding of academic standards need to be improved in Faculty or Department.
