Programme UNIBO Alma Idea

Coordinator: Dr. Laura Toschi

Duration 2 years – from 01/01/2018 to 28/01/2020 postponed to 31/05/2020

Objective

MOBILITI aims to analyze the determinants and impact of mobility in the Italian academic context. The research is divided into the following sub-objectives:

  1. Mapping of mobility within the Italian university system by analyzing the incoming and outgoing flows of universities and identifying dominant patterns and factors, using semantic publishing techniques.
  2. Comparative profiling of Italian academics, by identifying inter-individual differences that can explain the tendency to reach a certain level and type of mobility (also in relation to best practices in the EU and worldwide).
  3. Identification of contextual dimensions capable of capturing the institutional effect on mobility dynamics.
  4. Assessment of the impact of mobility in terms of scientific productivity and knowledge transfer for all levels of analysis adopted.
