The profile of tenure-eligible lecturers
What is the profile of tenure-eligible lecturers who successfully undergo assessment by the Agency? How old are they? How long ago did they obtain their doctorate? Have they spent periods of time undertaking research (research stays)? Do they publish in journals of quality? Are there any variations between the different fields of knowledge? The answers to these and other questions can be found in Profiles of tenure-eligible lecturers, a report recently published by AQU Catalunya that analyses the characteristics of individuals who obtained accreditation in the period from 2013 to 2017.

The accreditation of merits in research and gender
AQU Catalunya has undertaken the assessment and accreditation of merits in research of teaching and research staff since 2011, with assessment being based on six-year periods of research. The assessment of six-year periods of research is non-mandatory and is associated, in the case of both regular and contract teaching staff at public universities, with supplementary earnings. The assessment of merits in research is undertaken by the various specific committees that come under AQU's Research Assessment Commission (CAR).
