Reference: Definition: Reference information: Not sure of the most appropriate translation but here's the Italian definition: L'attribuzione del titolo di Professore Aggregato è previsto dalla Legge 4 novembre 2005, n. 230, art. 1, c. 11: "11. Ai ricercatori, agli assistenti del ruolo ad esaurimento e ai tecnici laureati di cui all'articolo 50 del decreto del Presidente della Repubblica 11 luglio 1980, n. 382, che hanno svolto tre anni di insegnamento ai sensi dell'articolo 12 della legge 19 novembre 1990, n. 341, nonché ai professori incaricati stabilizzati, sono affidati, con il loro consenso e fermo restando il rispettivo inquadramento e trattamento giuridico ed economico, corsi e moduli curriculari compatibilmente con la programmazione didattica definita dai competenti organi accademici nonché compiti di tutorato e di didattica integrativa. Ad essi è attribuito il titolo di professore aggregato per il periodo di durata degli stessi corsi e moduli. Lo stesso titolo è attribuito, per il periodo di durata dell'incarico, ai ricercatori reclutati come previsto al comma 7, ove ad essi siano affidati corsi o moduli curriculari.

Reference: Italian university titles Reference information: See this article for a discussion of professori aggregati: http://sciencecareers.sciencemag.org/career_magazine/previou... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2010-03-27 18:09:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Here are the relevant paragraphs from this article, which was written in 2005 and addresses proposed changes in the system. There is a clear distinction made between the professore aggiunto and the professore aggregato. But I don't know what the final outcome of these reforms were. Seems that some professori aggregati would be on a tenure track and some not. "At the core of the current draft bill is the very contentious and still-debated intention to eliminate the permanent position of ricercatore, and replace it with the new and untenured aggiunto professorship (literally, adjunct professors). The next career step for the new aggiunto professors would remain gaining a permanent position of professore associato or professore ordinario, through competition. For current ricercatore and postdocs alike, these changes would have a profound impact on their career trajectory. The draft bill proposes to recategorise all current ricercatori, who represent more than a third of the nation's 57,000 permanent academics, into the role of professore aggregato (literally, aggregate professor) so that they wouldn't lose their permanent status if the bill were to become law. Ricercatori would thus change their official name, but effectively stay on the terms of their existing permanent contracts. This maneuver would be effective only during the elimination stage of the ricercatore position. What happens next for them isn't clear. There are many open questions about the aggregate -- both in terms of access and progression -- which are still being addressed. A logical development would be that aggregati remain in the system until they can apply through concorso for the position of professore associato or professore ordinario. In a wish to also support the country's thousands of current postdocs, grant-holders, and others on short-term contracts during this transition phase, the Commission responsible for the reforms has just proposed -- controversially again -- to give them all the position of professore aggregato, too. But while postdocs would not need to go through a competition to become aggregato, unlike the ricercatori the new position would not come with permanent status. What will happen to these new aggregati is part of the ongoing discussion. Indeed, in a statement earlier this week, the academic-run Osservatorio Ricerca , which flags up university issues and promotes debate, pointed out the "incoherence" of the latest version of the bill from the Commission, citing the professore aggregato as the leading example." |
