Red Shift is the students' representative list of the University of Milano-Bicocca's Physics Department.
It was born from the collaboration of the Bachelor and Master degree students of Physics and Astrophysics.

The list's main aim is a continuos improvement of  education and that is achieved by acting as an intermediary between students and professors. At the same time it organizes events and activities to enrich students' university life.

•     Commissione Paritetica Docenti-Studenti (CPDS): it monitors the quality of education. Its aim is to improve the courses according to students' opinion.
