The role of the Course Quality Assurance Management Committee is to assist the Coordinator in overseeing the quality assurance procedures and disseminating the quality culture.
To this end, the QA Management Committee is responsible for:

- monitoring the career development of students, their opinion of the educational activities, their satisfaction at the end of their training and the employment status of graduates;
- sharing the results of the monitoring carried out with the Course Council.
The Univeristy of Bologna has established that the Course QA Management Committee consists of the Coordinator, assisted by other members of the Course Council, including student representatives:

Area Representatives Committee
The Area Representatives Committee is made up of professors responsible for coordinating the teaching of the three curricula (History, Oriental Studies, Global Cultures). Each contact person is in charge of the teaching related to a thematic or chronological pathway and can be consulted by students in order to obtain advice on the preparation of the study plan or on training activities, study trips abroad and the completion of the thesis abroad that can usefully complement the pathway chosen by the student. Area Representatives can be contacted by email or during office hours.
