ISO certification for universities

I work for a university. We are running engineering courses, for that reason we have engineering workshops and labs, eg. civil, mechanical, electronics & electrical. I would like to know if any ISO certification pertain to workshops/ labs in university setup?

Answer: I'm not aware of any specific ISO standard for universities. In general you can consider the ISO 9001 for implementation of quality management and ISO 17025 for quality management in laboratories, but these will depend mostly of the university's objectives and legal requirements it must comply with. It is important to note that you have to verify with the entity that regulate engineering courses in your country which are the requirements the workshops and labs must comply with. These are your main guidance to identify ISO standards.
