Quality assurance

The UDC International Doctoral School (EIDUDC) is subject to an Internal Quality Assurance System (IQAS) which governs all UDC PhD programmes ratified by Royal Decree-Law 99/2011, in compliance with EU Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the EHEA. For more information, see documentation relating to the UDC International Doctoral School Internal Quality Assurance System (Regulations for the implementation and administration of the International Doctoral School SGIC for UDC PhD programmes ratified under RD 99/2011; International Doctoral School IQAS Manual; International Doctoral School IQASProcedures).

Guidelines for the monitoring and supervision of the student learning process and outcomes are established in the IQAS Procedures document. The bodies and mechanisms responsible for the coordination, evaluation and continuous improvement of the programme of study are as follows:

Academic Committee for PhD Programmes (CAPD): university body responsible for the academic coordination of PhD programmes and academic decisions regarding PhD degree and degree candidates. The CAPD establishes the guidelines and procedures for the programme coordinator and all individuals involved in the degree. A UDC coordinator is appointed for all UDC PhD programmes ratified under RD 99/2011, including inter-university programmes operated by partner universities.

EIDUDC Quality Assurance Committee (CGC): body responsible for formulating and monitoring the SGIC and PhD degree programmes. The CGC also fulfils an internal communication role within the EIDUDC in relation to its objectives, plans, programmes and responsibilities. An annual monitoring report is produced by the EIDUDC Permanent Committee, acting in the name of the CGC.

Learning outcomes

The International Doctoral School IQAS sets out the standards and indicators applied by Academic Committees in relation to UDC PhD programmes for the measurement and analysis of learning outcomes and academic standards.

These indicators include the number of doctoral theses defended, ‘International Doctorate’ certifications awarded, PhDs completed within the published time scale (3-4 years), PhDs awarded and PhDs abandoned, in addition to the average timescale for completion of the degree.

Quality assurance

To ensure that the title is developed in accordance with the verification report presented the center conducts an annual monitoring report in accordance with the procedures of the center IQAS and results. This report is reviewed by the ACSUG, external evaluation agency.

The outcome of this analysis will emerge corrective actions and improvement proposals that achieve the intended objectives and the improvement of the degree.

Committees

In order to ensure proper standards and quality at UDC, a specific academic management committee of the PhD programme will be established.

This is a sample of the scientific production of the PhD students and is intended to guide prospective students interested in this program. Under no circumstances should it be considered a full and exhaustive list of all the scientific production of the students.

Rapid transition of beta barrel from arbitrary strands: A molecular dynamics observationResults in PhysicsA fast molecular dynamics simulation protocol for a parallel beta barrel formation from an aribitrary tetrameric strands was discussed, using charmm-27 forcefield based NAMD molecular dynamics. In this work, we employed a tetramer unit of alanine beta strands to investigate the folding kinetics, ionic strength, shear number, C=O–H-N bonding of barrel geometry. The results were consistent with an initial model in which oxygen placed in a rectangular like shape favours the barrel formation rather than the one with a square like oxygen topology. This approach allow us to compute the barrel formation trends in neurotoxic and ion channel proteins. Our simulation supports the theoretical findings reported by Chothia and coworkers [1, 2], and significantly well in accordance with the observation of single-walled carbon nanotube induced beta-barrel formation of the Alzheimer’s Abeta 25-35 oligomers.2020 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.There is a continuous high demand for understanding the relationship between protein structure and function. Protein conformational transition varies over a number of time scales, this time dependent behavior is solely dependent on the nature of a protein involved in a specific biomolecular function. Some xenophobic agents and or set of residues of proteins, for example, cis-trans isomerization of chromophore induced transition states of the main body of the protein changes as fast as femtoseconds (10􀀀15 sec) [3]. On the other hand, protein dynamics of oxygen transport pathways in hemoglobin and lipoxygenase reactions in which binding and releasing of oxygen from the binding site proceeds seconds to minutes time scale [4, 5]. However, many of the biochemical enzymatic reactions changes the protein shape more often at nanosecond (10^-9 sec) time scale domain. It is considered one of the significant area of interest for both in-silico and in-vivo experiments, as an evident, flip-flop modes of kinase domains [6] take place in nanoseconds to picoseconds (10􀀀12 sec), similarly ionchannel proteins in membranes change their open-closed state in a nanosecond range [7] and at certain extent their residence time of open state remains for an enough long time to allow the ion transportation. In the context of ions channels, despite their existence of an alpha helical and beta barrel, studies related to geometrical understanding of beta barrel are particularly few [8], for studying such systems involves considering protein-protein interactions, which are computationally expensive. In contrast to that, we are incorporating another thrust area of ab-initio structural modeling in a classical regime, which lies at the picosecond time domain. In our approach we discuss the sub-picosecond computational experiments on beta barrel formation from a model tetra alanine peptide strands of three different sizes; Viz., Ala-15, Ala-20, Ala-24.
