University Quality Assurance Committee

Sapienza University relies on a Quality Team, called University Quality Assurance Committee, in order to ensure the Quality of its system. This Committee, regulated by specific Rules, was approved by the Academic Senate and the Board of Directors as per Art. 4, paragraph 7 of the Statute. The University Quality Assurance Committee members were appointed by Rector decree n. 3856/2019, and represent our two main macro-areas: education and administration.

Mission and organisation of the Quality Team

Sapienza has gained an important experience by starting in 2005 its own Quality Assurance System (AQ) for degree programmes, based on the information model of the National Council for the Evaluation of the University System, named PerCorso Qualità (PCQ), which requires planning and management of the courses aimed at improving their quality.

To ensure the continuity of this process a University Quality Assurance Committee, called Team Quality, was established in 2009 by the Rector.
The Team is in charge of the activities related to the development of new instruments and methodologies, the implementation of Sapienza QA system and the organisation of training courses on the matter.

The University Quality Assurance Committee took office on May 13, 2013 and has set its strategic guidelines through a specific organisational model or network. To this end, some guidelines can be summarised as follows:

  • stimulate the "decision-makers" (Rector, Director General, Academic Senate, Board of Directors) on the "Quality" issue;
  • activate the "participants" (Deans, Department Directors, Programme Coordinators) on the substantial and non-formal aspects of Quality Assurance;
  • achieve greater integration between different planning systems: Quality Assurance is part of the University's performance management;
  • reinforce the network, by stimulating Faculties and Departments into overseeing the process of Quality Assurance, self-assessment, review and improvement of our Degree Programmes;
  • support structures that work with the Quality Team through a growth path on Quality Assurance issues.

 

The Quality Team has been organised based on those several and complex activities and research activities of Sapienza, and has a central role in the University Quality Assurance (AQ) as envisaged by the AVA System.
All the "Quality Team" pages on our website present the Quality Team and its organisation and provide methodological and operational support to Sapienza staff which is contributing to the creation of the Sapienza Quality Assurance system.
