- An assessment framework for the training plan has already been implemented in order to adapt student follow-up to the current regulations.At the same time, new students starting in the 2024-2025 academic year will have already been assigned a thesis follow-up committee consisting of a member of the academic committee and an external expert in the field of the thesis.

- Description:
- The last follow-up report identifies a certain imbalance between the different lines of research for the PdD.This imbalance would partly be caused by the fact there are extensive lines that include a high number of areas of research and teaching staff in relation with other very specific ones with a reduced number of teaching staff.
- Diagnosis:
- This imbalance is not considered positive in terms of the internal organisation of the PdD or in terms of the clarity of information reaching potential candidates on the programme.
- Appraisal:
- Since the last cycle of accreditation and amendment, numerous teaching staff with six-year periods of research have been incorporated into the company department of the UdG, particularly in the areas of accounting, finances and marketing.To a lesser degree, other areas and departments have also been changing their staff and the corresponding lines of research.This has also been the case at the UVic-UCC.
