The Departmental Research and Third Mission Commission (QA-RDTM Commission) is appointed by the Departmental Council at the proposal of the Director. It is composed by a number of professors who ensure the broadest representation of the CUN areas and the different fields of departmental research.
The QA-RDTM Commission performs several functions, since it:
• assists the Department Director in the definition and annual monitoring of the strategic objectives for research and the third mission, and in the planning of improvement actions, verifying their effectiveness;
• carries out the review of research and third mission activities, identifying their strengths and weaknesses, and formulating possible proposals for actions to improve them;
• submits proposals on research activities and criteria for the distribution of the relevant funds within the Department;
• fosters communication within itself and with other structures involved in the research and third mission processes.
