Consultative Committee of the Centre
The Consultative Committee is a body linked to the quality policy and objectives of the Faculty of Philology. Its creation was approved by the Faculty Board on 26 June 2019, at the request of the Centre's Quality Committee.
As stated in the USC Quality Assurance System, the main objectives of the Advisory Committees are:
- To debate the trends and social changes of interest for the Centre’s teaching and research activity.
- To channel information about the Centre to society in order to achieve a greater projection in its environment.
- To provide advice on the preparation and implementation of the Centre's Strategic Plan.
The Consultative Committee is made up of representatives of stakeholders outside the Faculty. Its composition and the appointment of its members is proposed by the Dean and submitted to the approval of the Faculty Board.
The participation of its members is voluntary and unpaid, and their contributions are not binding.
The members of the Consultative Committee are appointed for a period of 4 years, with the possibility of renewal. In the case of graduates of degrees, there is a limitation of 6 years from graduation at the time of incorporation into the Committee. For graduates of masters' degrees, the limitation is set at 3 years from the end of the studies.
The renewal of the members of the Committee will be partially carried out biannually (at least one third of its members).
The Consultative Committee shall meet at least once a year and shall keep a record of its meetings in the form of minutes. In addition, in order to facilitate the collection of information, other mechanisms may be used to allow members to participate (request for reports, surveys, etc.).
The follow-up and accountability of the reports derived from the meetings of the Consultative Committee will be incorporated annually into the Centre's Quality Report.
