Dezembro 2005

The present Report is structured in two main parts; the first part describes the concept, history, the procedure and results of the 2002 - 2004 Evaluation of the Research Units financed by the Foundation for Science and Technology. The main indicators, characteristic of the Research Units’ situation at the time of the evaluation, are discussed and a synthesis of the conclusions of the Evaluation Panels’ reports for each scientific area is presented. The classifications of the different Units and the amounts of funding awarded are analysed globally and per scientific area and compared with those of the preceding evaluations. This first part ends with recommendations for future evaluations, essentially abstracted from the reports and experience of the Evaluation Panels. The second part includes copies of all Evaluation Panels’ reports organized thematically.
