This paper describes a quality system for programme evaluation (standard 12) focusing on its roles and artefacts. The system has been in use for three years and has during this time been proven useful for systematically developing the ten different engineering programmes at our institute. The quality system has components both to ensure an increase in education quality and a quality assurance of the engineering education. One interesting feature of the system is that it has components that adjust the quality system itself, allowing it to evolve over time. It is claimed that the quality system shifts the focus of the quality discussion from an isolated course-oriented one to one focused on aligning course aims with programme aims. The cost of the quality system, expressed in full-time positions, is also discussed.
