Building up our first "Training plan for researchers"
HRS4R survey training nedds

In the framework of the actions adopted for the European Strategy HRS4R, a comprehensive听Training Plan for Researchers听will be defined in the next few months: two different surveys have been听analysing听individual needs, collective opportunities and institutional requirements of our University:

  • online survey听(PDF) is addressed to all our听professors, researchers, post-docs and Phd students听and is focused on听individual training needs;
  • in addition, a specific survey addressed to the Governance, the Rector's Delegates, the Heads of Department and AiQUA-R's Presidents aims at exploring听the institutional opportunity of offering some courses of general interest.

From January 17th听to April 1st听2020, an online anonymous questionnaire has been filled in by听180 researchers.听Consult the aggregate data (PDF)

As a result of this analysis a training plan (PDF) was defined and approved by Research Committee, with the support of the Teaching Commitee and the Academic Senate.
