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.
