The Quality Assurance System (QA) of Sapienza is described at length in the Web Pages of the Quality Team available at https://www.uniroma1.it/it/pagina/team-qualita.
The Web Pages describe the ten-year-long path developed by the University to build the Sapienza Quality Assurance system, the organisational model adopted, the QA actors (Quality Team, Monitoring Committees, Joint Teaching-Student Committees, Study Course Quality Committees), the active Working Groups, the main activities developed, the documentation prepared for the management of Quality Assurance processes and activities in Teaching, Research and Third Mission.
The Web Pages are also the platform for communication and the provision of reference data for the Re-examination activities, for the drafting of reports by the Joint Teaching-Student Committees and the Monitoring Committees, and for the compilation of the SUA-Didactic and SUA-Research sheets.
Each Degree Course and each Department has the faculty to apply the Sapienza Quality Assurance Model defined in the Web Pages of the Quality Team to the Quality Assurance of the Degree Course/Department, borrowing and adapting it to its own organisational specificities while respecting the models and procedures defined by ANVUR and the Quality Team.
Together with the SUA-Didactics and SUA-Research sheets, the CdS/Department Web Pages represent the communication tools for the implementation of the Quality Assurance System at CdS/Department level.

The Course Quality Committee is composed of three course lecturers, one of whom is appointed Head of Course, the Course Teaching Supervisor and a student representative. It holds office for three years and is responsible for the drafting of the Periodic Review Reports and the annual updating of the SUA-AVA Form. It submits the results of its activities to the Degree Course according to the deadlines indicated by the competent bodies of the Faculty and the University.
The Quality Group periodically examines the data provided by the Faculty and the University on the progress of the Degree Course, as well as activating a number of internal checks, mainly linked to the results of the initial admission test, the choice of study plans, the regularity of the careers of students, and any reports received from student representatives and/or those enrolled in the Degree Course.
The Course Quality Committee is actively involved in the planning of work related to the process of evaluation and self-evaluation of the Course of Study. According to the deadlines communicated by the University and on the basis of the documentary sources received, it is in charge of drafting the following documents Annual Monitoring Form, Dars Opis and Cyclical Review Report. It also proceeds with the annual compilation of the SUA CdS Form. It is also constantly applied in the consultation of the parties concerned, in order to optimise the training offer by adapting it to the demands of the world of work, and in the monitoring of the careers of male and female students, in order to counteract the tendency to extend the time it takes to obtain a degree and above all to prevent drop-outs.
