The annual reviews ongoing
The reviews are an essential part of the university annual clock.
The reviews are carried out at the start of calendar year. In addition to the previous year’s results it covers feedback collected from internal and external evaluations and audits, as well as comments gathered via various feedback channels. Based on these, the areas for development are identified and development measures and responsible actors are agreed on. The review summaries of the Schools are discussed in various steering and working groups of the university and the key findings are exported to the University management review. The President’s Management Team (PMT) reviews the feedback on the core and support activities in its meeting on 6 April. The key findings and the action points are documented. In May, the strategically important, university-wide development areas of our activities will be agreed in the Strategy Dialogues between the President and the Deans.
