the ROME – Ferruccio Resta , 51 years old, engineer, rector of the Polytechnic of Milan, is the new president of the Conference of the rectors of Italian universities, of which he was secretary-general. Elected by the general assembly of the Crui, replaces Gaetano Manfredi , appointed last December, the minister of University and Research.
In his speech, the settlement Remains has outlined the idea of a Crui “constructive and bold” and promoter of a project is essential to the development of the university system and, through it, to the growth of the Country. He said: “At a time of strong critical and of great transformations, to the university, as well as to the political institutions, the demand is a higher dose of responsibility. This is the time to reaffirm a unity of purpose, set ambitious targets and shared”.
The priorities listed by the Remains include an increase and a diversification of investment in education and research (“to ensure the survival and competitiveness of the universities present on the Italian territory”), the growth in the international positioning (“useful to counteract the drain of young people”), the simplification of the regulatory burden, and the attention to researchers and graduate students, a competitive edge compared to competitor Countries.
“There are urgent matters that we cannot put off,” said Left, “for those universities that otherwise would not be able to withstand the competition with foreign countries and to those who would not be able to survive, despite being the only reality of the growth of the territories in difficulty. Research and training are an investment, not a cost”.
rectors Salvatore Cuzzocrea (University of Messina), and Maurizio Tira (University of Brescia) are the two new members of the board.
