Abstract

From a time to today, teaching and research has been significantly affected by the ideal of the quest to grow and develop according to egalitarian quality parameters for all areas of science, which are more or less common. Following this trail, external quality processes have been developed by independent agencies, belonging to the Public Administration, both general and autonomous in some cases. In the same way, several internal quality control systems have been created within the university itself, in order to control prior to external inspections, that the teaching methods are adapted to the parameters arranged from the outside. Among the parameters to be controlled, research was included as a variable of great importance. This has been subject to impact indexes and rankings where it reflects precisely the impact and quality of it. However, subjecting all branches of science to the same variables is not always adequate, and may even be counterproductive because it does not favor excellence.
