The Steering Committee of the QF course is made up of representatives of the companies which are most interested in the profile of QF students. the purpose of this initiative is to ask the company to evaluate the syllabus and the didactic structure of the course, in order to validate whether the knowledge that the degree course provides to the students corresponds to the skills that a company expects to find in young candidates, thus providing feedback and suggestions to adapt the academic offer to the company’s needs.
In fact, the structure of the QF degree course is very flexible in the second year and the external contributions from the companies would allow consistent changes or additions to electives courses in a short space of time (one year to the next).
