The UCAM submit their research projects to the evaluation of the National Evaluation and Foresight Agency (ANEP) and evaluating research productivity of its faculty to CNEAI
The Catholic University of Murcia has chosen from the beginning not only quality education, but it has settled on a solid research base.
The strong commitment of service to the institution Murcia society is reflected in the growing research activity generating and Transferred to enterprises, contributing thus to the development of socio-economic environment.
The UCAM invested during the past year 2012-2013 a total of 7,183,973 euros in research, including this one, spending on infrastructure and personnel costs.
It should be noted that the Catholic of Murcia has a Research Plan in which several programs are framed: Promotion of Human Resources, Support the Creation and Consolidation of Research Groups, Mobility Support and Knowledge Sharing.
Attracting talent
Included in the program of enhancing human resources and talent recruitment, scholarships are initiating research with which the University encourages scientific spirit and awakens the interest of his students by research from the early stages of their formation.
Through this type of scholarship is to encourage the recruitment departments senior students and master degree which can thus have a first contact with scientific and research activity.
In the same vein, it should be noted that it is a prerequisite for the development of the capacities of scientific, technical and humanistic research UCAM condition, progressive training and the faculty of the University of incorporation staff with high commitment to research activity .
To this end, the institution promotes predoctoral training contracts for research personnel.
Similarly, the UCAM also invests in postdoctoral research which seeks to bring research groups young doctors who, having proved an excellent scientific qualification, wishing to develop his research in the institution.
From the Research highlights the importance of these initiatives.
"With the implementation of this system of pre and postdoctoral own contracts, the UCAM currently available from a group of elite researchers, built from a rigorous selection of the best comprehensive curriculum product of the combination of the resume submitted to these calls. "
Research groups
Another field of action research in which it has invested and continues to invest, the Catholic University of Murcia, is to support the creation and consolidation of research groups.
Through the call for aid to the realization of research projects and grants for equipment provision and maintenance of Scientific and Technical, UCAM has significantly increased scientific productivity.
It should be noted that the institution submitted Murcia research projects of their own to the evaluation of the National Agency for Evaluation and Prospective (ANEP) (dependent unit of the Directorate General of Scientific and Technical Research), which has among its objectives call rate scientific and technical quality of proposals seeking public funding, both public and private entities.
With regard to the scientific productivity of research groups UCAM, its researchers voluntarily undergo evaluation of their research sections by National Evaluation of Research Activity (CNEAI), with 90% success this assessment.
An electron microscope generation
An example of the commitment of the UCAM by research is the continuous acquisition of scientific and technical equipment as well as expanding its facilities geared to practical work of their students and the development of R + D + i.
Notable laboratory robotics, biomechanics, Roads and food; classrooms physiotherapy dissection simulation and hospital microscopes, or professional radio and television studios.
In addition, the UCAM acquired last year scanning electron microscope (VP Compact Merlin), a fact that places the institution as an international-level research in various fields.
Supporting mobility
The UCAM also funds within its Research Plan to attend national and international conferences and visits of researchers at other universities or research organizations.
Proof of this is the research conducted by Professor Department of Computer Engineering, José María Cecilia Canales, during his stay at the University of Illinois (USA) where he worked with the renowned Professor Wen-Mei Hwu.
