In 2008 SLU's Board decided that the University should carry out a comprehensive evaluation of its research and environmental monitoring and assessment.
The evalution, Quality and Impact (KoN 09), covered two main aspects, assessment of scientific quality by peer review, and assessment of the utility for society and the green sectors as preceived by the stakeholders (industry, public authorities, organisations, ets).
The evaluations was completed in December 2009. Results and conclusions are presented in the final report, "Evaluation of Quality and Impact at SLU" (in English, with a Swedish summary).
