Participation in projects that involve teachers and researchers from Italian and international universities is one aspect of DISUM research activity, which views such participation as crucial from the perspective of valorisation of the multiplicity of skills necessary for the research itself. As well as developing and following individual lines of research, DISUM teachers participate in numerous projects and national and international agreements collaborating in interdisciplinary projects funded by the University for Research (FAR), and playing a key role in various PRIN projects (Research Programmes of National Relevance).
These projects cover the fields of literary, language, historic-artistic, geographic, philosophical, historic, anthropological disciplines and political and social sciences, and can be viewed and accessed on the UPO Research Portal (PURE).
PURE is a platform for disseminating and sharing the University’s scientific output and specialized expertise. Scientific publications are retrieved from the IRIS portal, and research projects from the internal database (since 2018). Thanks to its integration with the Scopus database and the generation of Fingerprint indices, PURE offers an overview of UPO’s research activities and topics. The Map illustrates the extensive network of collaborations.
