The dynamics of the Italian University system: reactions to the central guidelines and interactions with the productive system

The project focuses the attention on the main challenges that the University system is called to face in the present, such as the recurring process of research evaluation, the progressive fulfillment of the new FFO system and the relationship between Universities and their territories.

Different models of University governance at peripheral level: the role of departments, faculties, schools in organizing teaching and research in Europe

The aim is to produce an empirically-based typology of University forms of governance at the peripheral level, by studying how they work (more or less effectively) in a small non-random sample of European universities. On the basis of such typology, the Italian Rectors’ conference might suggest appropriate solutions to help universities use their autonomy in an informed way.
