Law, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science, Political and Social Sciences of the University of Cagliari were eligible for the role of "Departments of Excellence".
The first two, in particular, reported the maximum score (100), but the other two also figure well positioned in the special ranking of those who do research in Italy.
These are the indications of the National Agency for the Evaluation of the University and Research System (ANVUR). In the past, the Department of Economics and Business Sciences had already entered the final list.
"We expected to do better than the last round - declares the rector Francesco Mola - when we only had the Department of Economics and Business Sciences, which later became the Department of Excellence. Four departments, two of which with full marks, are an important result. and encouraging. It must be said that they are national comparisons between homogeneous areas for research fields and not comparisons in the same university. Now ready for phase two ".
Now begins the second phase of the selection , to enter the restricted circle of the first 180 . The procedure envisaged by the law provides that each university can present a five-year development project for the department, accompanied by a financial program, which includes the recruitment of personnel, the rewarding of personnel, research infrastructures and highly qualified teaching and scientific activities. .
The next step will be the evaluation of the projects by a commission that will draw up a final ranking of the 180 departments of excellence.
