Human Resources Strategy for Researchers (HRS4R) Quality Seal
This distinction recognizes institutions that create a favorable environment for research work, ensuring that researcher recruitment processes are open, transparent and merit-based (OTM-R). At the same time, this distinction makes the University more competitive when seeking European funding, as Europe values this type of accreditation when awarding research projects.

The Transfer of Technology and Knowledge is a clear commitment by Comillas to applying the research developed and its transfer to the social and productive environment. Through the OTRI (Office for the Transfer of Research Results), it transmits its research results to the market and at the service of society.
