The National Education System Law (Sisdiknas) Number 20 of 2003, article 50 paragraph (6) concerning the autonomy of higher education, mandates that universities must carry out internal supervision of the higher education they administer. These provisions are further elaborated in Government Regulation Number 44 of 2015 concerning National Higher Education Standards (SN-Dikti) which requires a horizontal supervisory structure in each education unit by implementing an education quality assurance system. The education quality assurance system aims to make education units meet or exceed the National Higher Education Standards (SN-Dikti). The quality assurance system includes the process of implementing, implementing, evaluating, controlling, and improving higher education quality standards consistently and continuously so that both internal and external stakeholders get satisfaction.

In general, it can be argued that what is meant by quality assurance is the consistent and continuous implementation, implementation, control, evaluation and improvement of higher education quality standards (continuous improvement / kaizen), so that stakeholders, both internal and external, get satisfaction. A university is declared qualified if: (1) the university is able to determine and realize its vision; (2) universities are able to translate their vision into a number of standards and derivative standards; (3) tertiary institutions are able to implement, control, and develop a number of standards and derivative standards to meet the needs of stakeholders.

In order for quality education at the Faculty of Medicine Universitas Sebelas Maret (FK UNS), FK UNS must establish, implement, evaluate the implementation, control, and improve education quality standards in a system called the Internal Quality Assurance System (SPMI), to ensure the quality of higher education. FK UNS will always improve the quality continuously (Continuous Quality Improvement), so that quality becomes a culture in every activity and process carried out by all FK UNS academicians. One aspect is the improvement of quality in the field of education, which must be a trigger for enthusiasm in all forms of academic activities at FK UNS. To be able to be the best and have a quality culture, FK UNS must improve governance management in the academic and non-academic fields, especially in the fields of education and learning, research, community service and management of governance.
