Organisation

The SMAQ is a governance support unit and therefore depends on the rectorate. It is overseen by the Rector and composed of an executive unit of 3 administrative agents.

It collaborates with the training, research and administrative bodies of the institution subject to evaluations, or wanting to develop their own quality system.

It works specifically with the Data Collection and Analysis and Strategically Useful Information (RADIUS) unit regarding the development of useful indicators for internal or external evaluation approaches.
