Abstract: The pursuit of quality in higher education it’s always an actual concern, this article aims to point out the multifaceted nature of quality assurance by undertaking a comparison between the legal and academic approaches. Grounded in the understanding that both legal and academic approaches shape educational quality, the research analyzes these two perspectives. The legal framework is explored in terms of performance indicators established by Romanian law, while the academic perspective encompasses the approach of extended research that takes into consideration the organizational elements that play an important role in assuring quality. Through comparative analysis, the article uncovers the intersections between these approaches. By identifying the common areas and identifying opportunities for alignment, this research contributes valuable perspectives for institutions seeking to strike an optimal balance between legal and academic considerations in their pursuit of educational excellence.
