Quality Assurance

The Quality Assurance Group (QA), or Review Committee, of the Degree Programme in Viticulture and Enology includes among its members representatives from the professional sector and public institutions, who provide a constant and valuable point of reference to ensure that the educational project of the programme remains aligned with labour market needs.

The QA Group of the Viticulture and Enology degree programme meets periodically, approximately twice a year, to define, implement, and monitor quality assurance actions for the programme, to prepare the annual monitoring report and the cyclical review report, and to assess any potential opportunities for improving the educational pathway of the degree programme.

  • Prof. Paolo Vernieri (Chair)
  • Prof. Marco Fontanelli (Vice-Chair and Review Coordinator)
  • Prof. Rossano Massai (Degree Program Faculty Member)
  • Dr. Stefano Fanti (Head of Teaching Activities)
  • Alessandra Lepidio (Degree Program Student Representative)

For each Degree Program, a Quality Assurance (QA) Group is established, with the following responsibilities:

  • Oversee the review process for the Degree Program Board; specifically, it prepares the annual monitoring report and the cyclical review report;
  • Define and implement improvement actions resulting from the review process, in coordination with the Departmental QA Manager;
  • Monitor the outcomes of the improvement actions undertaken;
  • Analyze the contents of the Departmental Joint Committee's annual report regarding the degree program and, in general, the status of teaching and related services;
  • Implement, in agreement with the Departmental QA Manager, actions following the University Quality Policy in connection with the University Quality Assurance Board (Presidio della Qualità).

The Degree Program QA Group is chaired by the Degree Program Chair (or their delegate) and must include student representation.
