Quality Assurance of Teaching

Main elements of QA analysis

• data on the results achieved by male and female students in their studies;
• survey of students' opinions on the quality of teaching (OpiS);
• requests and contributions from students presented through the Joint Teacher-Student Commission and its representatives;
• feedback from graduates of the study courses;
• statistical data on job opportunities and employability of those who have already graduated;
• data on the number of students enrolled in degree courses and individual courses. 

Key QA documents

• Annual monitoring sheet (SMA-CdS);
• Single Annual Form (SUA-CdS);
• analysis of the results of the OpiS evaluation questionnaires;
• Cyclic, periodic review report (RRC);
• Report of the Joint Teacher-Student Commission;
• Training offer monitoring report;
• any other departmental reports or relations.

Delegate for teaching

He is the operational manager of teaching management for the centre and promotes continuous improvement, in collaboration with the Quality Delegate. The various teaching delegates participate in the Teaching Roundtable, chaired by the Vice Rector for Teaching, which provides a forum for sharing and discussing key teaching strategies, initiatives, and issues.

Coordinator of study courses

He is responsible for the design, management, monitoring, and continuous improvement of the degree program, ensuring that the recommendations made during the periodic review are implemented. In carrying out his duties, he oversees the compilation of the SUA-CdS form and coordinates the review group in drafting the SMA-CdS, the RRC, and the OpiS report.

Study Courses/Teaching Area Review Group

The primary focus of the degree program self-evaluation process, as it initiates and implements the degree program monitoring and review process. It drafts the SMA-CdS, the Cyclical Review Report, the OpiS report, and intervenes in the event of critical issues with improvement actions.

Joint Teacher-Student Commission (CPDS)

The CPDS is composed of equal numbers of faculty and students representing the relevant degree programs at the Department level. It monitors the program offerings and the quality of teaching, and assesses student satisfaction with the teaching and study experience. It prepares an annual report, separate for each degree program, on the entire program offering, following which any proposals for improvement are developed and implemented.

Student Representatives

To actively contribute to the University's Quality Assurance process, Student Representatives participate in all review groups and the Joint Teacher-Student Commission, reporting student observations, concerns, and suggestions for improvement regarding teaching, the right to education, and the services offered.
