Approaching the University’s periodic accreditation

The final phase of Unimore’s periodic accreditation visit by the National Agency for the Evaluation of the
University System and Research (ANVUR) is approaching. A commission of experts assesses the perma-
nence of the Quality Requirements that make the University suitable for the performance of its institutional
functions. In particular, the evaluation is aimed at measuring the efficiency, economic-financial sustainability
of the activities and results achieved in the areas of teaching, research and the third mission/social impact,
in accordance with the standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education
Area (ESG) and taking into account the objectives of the Ministry’s three-year programme. The commission
that assesses Unimore is composed of 23 experts in economic and financial sustainability, system, disciplin-
ary areas and students. The University’s commitment to the continuous strengthening of the 2020-2025
Strategic Plan facilitated the complex phase of preparing the Self-Assessment Documents. This phase saw
the intense choral work of lecturers, technical-administrative staff and students.
