Quality Assurance

The Quality Assurance (QA) system of the Master’s Degree Programme in Mechatronics Engineering is implemented in accordance with the European Standards and Guidelines (ESG 2015) and the AVA3 framework defined by ANVUR.

The QA system ensures the continuous improvement of the programme through systematic monitoring, evaluation, and review of educational processes and outcomes.

Objectives

  • Ensure consistency between learning outcomes and teaching activities
  • Monitor student progression, performance, and satisfaction
  • Promote continuous improvement of teaching quality
  • Ensure transparency and accountability

QA Governance and Responsibilities

The QA system is managed through the following bodies:

  • Programme Coordinator – overall responsibility for QA processes
  • Quality Assurance Committee (AQ Group) – monitoring and coordination
  • Joint Student-Teacher Committee (CPDS) – evaluation of teaching quality
  • Review Group (Gruppo di Riesame) – preparation of monitoring reports
  • Course of Study Council (CCS) – approval of QA actions

QA Cycle (PDCA Model)

  • Plan: definition of objectives and learning outcomes
  • Do: implementation of teaching activities
  • Check: monitoring through indicators and student feedback
  • Act: definition of improvement actions

Monitoring and Indicators

  • Student enrolment trends
  • Dropout and completion rates
  • Graduate employment data
  • Student satisfaction surveys

Key QA Documents

All documents are publicly available to ensure transparency.

Student Involvement
