Degree Programme Quality Assurance Committee (QA Committee)
This Committee is required by the University’s Quality Assurance System and is also referenced in the “Operating Rules of Degree Programmes at the University of Bologna.”
Composition
The Committee is chaired by the Degree Programme Director and includes lecturers who are members of the Degree Programme Board. Student representatives elected to the Board also participate in the Committee or, if none are elected, students enrolled in the programme who are appointed by the Board.
The current members of the Committee are:
- Prof. Kerry Jane Rhoden: Degree Programme Director
- Prof. Giulia Ramazzotti: Deputy Director of the Degree Programme
- Prof. Matteo Rottoli: member of the Degree Programme Board
- Prof. Leonardo Henry Umberto Eusebi: member of the Degree Programme Board
- Mr. Robin Bishop: Student representative
- Ms. Maria Vittoria Dardi: Student representative
Functions
The Committee supports the Degree Programme Director in managing quality assurance procedures and promoting a culture of quality.
Degree programmes conduct self-assessments by analysing and monitoring their performance based on student feedback and specific indicators.
The activities must have measurable and documented outcomes. The self-assessment process facilitates the flow of information and knowledge management, also promoting transparency in the decision-making process and its implementation.
The documents produced by the QA Committee are designed to support discussions within the Degree Programme Board and with the Joint Student-Teacher Committee (Commissione Paritetica Docenti-Studenti), which operates within the Department to which the Degree Programme belongs.
Similarly to the Degree Programme Quality Assurance Committee, the Joint Committee plays a role in quality assurance procedures and in fostering a culture of quality.
