5. A series of steps have been put in place by UMONS to guarantee top-notch research. It has created the Department for Research Support and Technology Transfer (AVRE) to support researchers in creating efficient research. UMONS has established a number of institutes to facilitate cross-disciplinary research teams’ exposure and collaboration. A new project has also been started, such as the creation of an institutional repository, which is encouraged by incentives such the inclusion of publications from the repository in the evaluation of candidate files and rewards for successfully defended theses.
6. UMONS has increased the number of English-language courses it provides, established the Center for Modern Languages (CLV), and expanded the responsibilities of the International Relations Office as part of its internationalisation strategy (SRI). A number of programmes are now in place to encourage the mobility of researchers and students. These include the English and conversation classes that the CLV offers to staff and students, as well as the French language programmes that are available to international students.
