The Degree Board may arrange a special session dedicated to international Students and appoint a commission for the assessment of the personal preparation, with a timing compatible with the assignment of scholarships. Students who have received from the Degree Board a positive evaluation in the procedure described above shall be exempted from the procedure for the assessment of personal preparation planned for all the Students. In case the curriculum requirements detailed above are fulfilled, the Degree Board – or a Board’s representative – might anyway identify specific cultural gaps in the student’s prior preparation within topics that are important to profitably follow the Second-cycle Degree in Automation Engineering. Supplementary activities will be required to those students who have cultural gaps in one or more of the aforementioned areas, in order to align the required competencies with the contents of the courses of the Second-cycle Degree. 1.3 Language requirements Adequate proficiency in English (at least B-2 level according to CEFR) is required for admission to the Second cycle Degree in Automation Engineering. Candidates submitting a certificate issued by a recognized institution (e.g. TOEFL, IELTS, Cambridge Esol, ...) proving such knowledge are exempted from further assessment. Otherwise, English proficiency of the Applicant is assessed by a Commission nominated by the Degree Board. Whenever English knowledge is not considered adequate, the Degree Board may require the Student to fill the gap before registering any exam of their second year. Article 2. Curricula - Student course selection The Programme is two years long. In case of properly motivated requests, the Student can submit an individual Study Plan. The requests, submitted by the deadlines defined every year by the School of Engineering and Architecture Board and made public through the University Website, will be individually addressed to the Degree Board, that shall consider the rationale for the submission and whether it can be accepted or not, on the basis of the coherence with the learning outcomes of the Programme and with the document “Degree Programme Regulation”.

For interested Students, there is also the possibility to obtain a Double Degree: the Second-cycle Degree in Automation Engineering from the University of Bologna and the “Master of Science (MSc) in Automation Engineering” from the Tongji University, Shanghai, China. The Double Degree Programme is open to Students of the Second-cycle Degree in Automation Engineering who, in the first year of study, apply to the Programme according to the modalities defined every year by the School of Engineering and Architecture Board. Students are selected by a specific Commission, nominated by the School of Engineering and Architecture Board, on the basis of the following criteria:

- Curriculum of studies - Knowledge of the English language - Motivational criteria

Selected Students receive a grant, whose amount is defined each year by the DEI Board, and have to attend the second year of study - plus an additional period equivalent to a semester - at Tongji University, taking the exams defined by the Double Degree programme. Courses at Tongji University are given in English. Article 3. Teaching methods Each teaching activity may be carried out in different ways, e.g.:

- Theoretical lessons in class - Exercises in class - Laboratory work - Tutoring - Self-evaluation exercises - E-learning





6

With reference to the item “Hours” used herein below (point “General list of Courses”), the following apply:

- For the course bearing a numerical value of the item “Hours”, such a value is the maximum of the sum of the hours devoted to theoretical lessons in class, to class exercises, and to laboratory work —the latter under the supervision of the teacher (“Titolare”) or tutor— including the time devoted to intermediate exams and to the tutoring in class. The minimum is fixed to 80% of the numerical value of the item “Hours”.

- For the teaching activities whose name does not contain the word “Laboratory”, the total hours devoted to theoretical lessons in class and exercises in class must range between two thirds and the total of the numerical value of the item “Hours”. The remaining part (if any) is covered by laboratory work, intermediate exams, and tutoring.

- For the teaching activities whose name contains the word “Laboratory”, the total hours devoted to theoretical lessons in class and exercises in class must not exceed one fifth of the numerical value of the item “Hours”. The remaining part is carried out in the laboratory.

The hours concerning Stage activities are defined in accordance with criteria defined in the “Internship Regulation” approved by the University. These hours are held in the host structure. Article 4. Course Attendance - Specified order of the exams The Student is not entitled to access an exam if he/she is not registered in the corresponding course. Also, the Student is not entitled to access the course exam where he/she is registered for a specific Academic Year, if the lessons of such a course in the same Academic Year have not been completed yet. For the teaching activities whose name contains the word “Laboratory”, the Student is not entitled to access the exam if he/she has not attended at least 70% of the hours indicated in the item “Hours”. For the Stage activities the attendance rules are specified in the “Internship Regulation” approved by the University. The exams of some courses must be undertaken in a specified order. Such cases, if any, are indicated herein below (point “General list of Courses”).

Article 5. Structure and outcome of the exams Each teaching activity may have a different structure and outcome of the exam, e.g.:

- Written and oral exam, evaluation by mark - Oral-only exam, evaluation by mark - Written-only exam, evaluation by mark - Any of the above, evaluation by “pass/fail”

For each teaching activity the outcome of the exam is indicated herein below (point “General list of Courses”). The structure of the exam is proposed by the teacher and is approved by the Degree Board or by the Degree Coordinator if the latter is so entrusted by the Degree Board. The exam is personal and aims at determining the intellectual maturity of the Student along with his/her holding the knowledge and abilities typical of the course’s subject. Intermediate exams on the course’s subject are allowed, whose possible negative result does not influence the Student’s access to the exam. For the oral-only exams, a preliminary written exam is anyhow allowed, whose outcome influences the Student’s access to the oral exam. For all teaching activities the Commission for the exams is proposed by the teacher and approved by the Degree Board or by the Degree Coordinator if the latter is so entrusted by the Degree Board. The Commissions are made of two members at least, one of whom is typically the course’s instructor that acts as the Commission’s Chairman. If there is more than one instructor (e.g., in integrated courses or in courses divided into modules), one of the instructors acts as the Commission’s Chairman. The other member(s) of the Commission must be either faculty professors, research assistants, or external experts so appointed by the teacher. For the Stage activities, the structure and outcome of the exam are specified by the document entitled “Internship Regulation” approved by the University. Art. 6: Elective Learning Activities - Courses freely chosen by the Student In standard Study Plan, Students can select some courses within constrained sets of choices and other courses freely. For the latter, a list of suggested courses is provided.





8

The Students’ choices must be reported to the Student Administration Office within the deadlines and following the instructions defined every year by the School of Engineering and Architecture Board and published on the website of the University of Bologna. As far as the free selections are concerned, Students can select either courses in the list of suggested ones, or among all the coursed provided by the University of Bologna and in accordance with the objectives of the Programme. In the latter case, selections will be submitted to the Degree Board for approval. Art. 7: Acknowledgement of credits acquired from programs belonging to the same class This article applies to Students owning an Italian Second Cycle University degree only, conforming to the provisions of the Ministry Decree 270/2004 (“Laurea Magistrale”), belonging to the LM-25 class. The acknowledgement of credits in the Student career pursues the goal of Student mobility and it is approved by the Degree Board up to the achievement of the credits of the same Disciplinary Scientific Sector (Settore Scientifico-Disciplinare) according to the “Degree Programme Regulation”, within the related scientific disciplinary setting and of the kind of formative activities. Once credits are acknowledged according to the rule of the present regulation, the Degree Board can acknowledge possible residual credits case by case according to didactical and cultural affinity. In order to fill possible gaps of credits in a specific Disciplinary Scientific Sector, the Degree Board has the authority to set up some supplementary learning activities, distinct by Disciplinary Scientific Sector or groups of affine sectors, such as cycles of seminars, laboratory activities, tutored study activities, etc. The value of the credits of the supplementary activities ranges from one to three and it is anyway smaller than the number of credits of the course to be integrated. The evaluation is by “pass/fail”.

Article 8. Acknowledgement of credits acquired from programs belonging to a different class, from e-learning programs, or from international programs The credits may be acknowledged by the Degree Board after an analysis based on the following criteria: - Contents of the course whence the credits have been acquired





9

- Total number of teaching hours of the course - Evaluation of the consistency of the field (or of the subjects, if the sectors are not defined), and of the contents of the courses whence the Student has acquired the

credits, with the specific teaching objectives of the Second-cycle Degree in Automation Engineering, as indicated in the document entitled “Degree Programme Regulation”.

Credits are acknowledged to the extent of those reported in the document “Degree Programme Regulation”.

If, after recognition under the above rules, there are residual unused credits, the Degree Board may acknowledge them after evaluation of the specific case according to cultural affinity.

Article 9. Acknowledgement of credits for extra-university competencies and skills The Degree Board may acknowledge competencies and abilities not provided by the University of Bologna, according to the applicable regulations and laws, up to a maximum of 12 CFU. The acknowledgment of the Degree Board is based on the coherence of the competencies and abilities with the Study Plan.

Art. 10 Final exam The contents of the final exam are those of the Thesis of a Second-cycle Degree (“Laurea Magistrale”), and consist of a significant project or research activity carried out by the Student on a subject chosen by himself/herself.

The results of such a work are illustrated in an original document, prepared by the Student on the Thesis’ subject and discussed in front of a Commission appointed by the Degree Board. The composition of the Commission conforms to the prescription of the document entitled “University Teaching Regulations“. The final exam must show the Student’s ability to master the subject, his/her attitude to work autonomously, and high-level communication skills. The Thesis discussion is public as prescribed by the





10

“University Teaching Regulations”.

For accessing the final exam the Student must acquire all the credits indicated by the document entitled “Degree Programme Regulation“ in the teaching activities different from the final exam, distributed into the different types as defined herein below (point “General list of Courses”).

The evaluation of the final exam is by numerical rating and is expressed as a fraction of the form n/110, where n must not exceed 110. The unanimous agreement of the Commission is mandatory for attributing the evaluation 110/110 cum laude.

Article 11. Coherence between ECST credits related to teaching activities and their learning outcomes The Steering Committee of the School of Engineering and Architecture on November 29th, 2016 has agreed on the coherence between ECTS credits related to teaching activities and their learning outcomes, according to DM 270/2004 (article 3, subsection 3).

PARTE NORMATIVA Art. 1 Requisiti per l’accesso al corso L’ammissione a questo programma è concessa agli studenti che soddisfano, primariamente, requisiti curriculari e, secondariamente, requisiti relativi all’adeguata preparazione. Se i requisiti curriculari non sono soddisfatti, l’accesso alla Laurea Magistrale in Ingegneria dell’Automazione è negata. Nel caso i requisiti curriculari siano invece soddisfatti, viene valutata l’adeguatezza della personale preparazione. L’ammissione è concessa solo se tutti i requisiti sono soddisfatti. Le procedure per valutare i requisiti curriculari e quelli relativi all’adeguata preparazione sono dettagliati nel seguito. 1.1 Requisiti curriculari Per essere ammessi al Corso di Studio è necessario il possesso di un titolo di laurea di durata almeno triennale (ovvero conseguito attraverso l’acquisizione di almeno 180 CFU), o di altro titolo di studio conseguito all’estero riconosciuto idoneo. L’ammissione al Corso di Laurea Magistrale è riservata a:

a) Laureati nella classe dell’Ingegneria dell’Informazione (classe 8 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 270/04 e classe 9 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 509/99) o nella classe dell’Ingegneria Industriale (classe 9 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 270/04 e classe 10 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 509/99) nel cui nome compaia “Ingegneria dell’Automazione” o “Ingegneria Meccatronica”. Le lauree erogate in Italia che ricadono in questa definizione forniscono tutte curricula adeguati. b) Laureati nella classe dell’Ingegneria dell’Informazione (classe 8 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 270/04 e classe 9 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 509/99), o nella classe dell’Ingegneria Industriale (classe 9 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 270/04 e classe 10 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 509/99) con un voto di laurea non inferiore a 110/110.





12

c) Laureati nella classe dell’Ingegneria dell’Informazione (classe 8 nell’ordinamento ex DM 270/04 e classe 9 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 509/99), o nella classe dell’Ingegneria Industriale (classe 9 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 270/04 e classe 10 nell’Ordinamento ex DM 509/99) con un voto di laurea inferiore a 110/110, ma che soddisfino entrambi i seguenti requisiti:

– un numero di CFU acquisiti non inferiore a 6 nel SSD ING-INF/04;

– un numero di CFU acquisiti non inferiore a 12 nell’insieme dei settori ING-IND/13, ING-IND/32, ING-INF/05. d) Laureati in classi diverse dalle precedenti che soddisfino tutti i requisiti seguenti:

– almeno 30 CFU nei SSD MAT/02, MAT/03, MAT/05, MAT/06, MAT/07, MAT/08, FIS/01, FIS/03;

– almeno 6 CFU nel SSD ING-INF/04;

– almeno 12 CFU relativi ad attività formative nei SSD ING-IND/13, ING-IND/32, ING-INF/05. Gli stessi criteri del punto d) si applicano anche a coloro che sono in possesso di un titolo di studio di livello universitario conseguito all’estero, giudicato idoneo dal Consiglio di Corso di Studio, per il quale siano possibili la conversione del voto di laurea secondo il sistema italiano, l’identificazione dei settori scientifico-disciplinari e il numero di crediti conseguiti in ciascun settore. In caso contrario, il Consiglio di Corso di Studio procede alla valutazione della carriera. In via del tutto eccezionale, il Consiglio del Corso di Studi potrà anche prevedere piani didattici differenziati conformi all’Ordinamento per quegli studenti con un particolare curriculum universitario pregresso. Tali piani didattici differenziati non riguarderanno in alcun modo studenti in possesso del titolo di primo livello in Ingegneria dell’Automazione conseguito presso l’Università di Bologna. 1.2 Verifica dell’adeguatezza della personale preparazione L’ammissione al Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Ingegneria dell’Automazione per laureati che hanno ottenuto un voto di laurea inferiore a 92/110 è subordinata alla valutazione della adeguatezza della carriera universitaria del richiedente da parte del Consiglio di Corso di Studio.





13

In questi casi, l’adeguatezza della personale preparazione è verificata per laureati che soddisfino tutti i seguenti requisiti:

– Possesso di almeno 42 CFU nei SSD ING-IND/13, ING-IND/32, o ING-INF/04;

– Possesso di almeno 30 CFU nei SSD ING-INF/01, ING-INF/04, o ING-INF/05;

– Possesso di almeno 24 CFU nei SSD MAT/07, ING-IND/14, ING-IND/31, ING-IND/35. Il predetto limite sul voto di Laurea è ridotto a 85/110 per i laureati nell’A.A. 2011-2012 e precedenti. Nel caso di laureati con titolo universitario estero per il quale siano possibili la conversione del voto di laurea secondo il sistema italiano, l’identificazione dei settori scientifico-disciplinari e il numero di crediti conseguiti in ciascun settore, si adottano gli stessi criteri validi per i laureati italiani. In caso contrario, il Consiglio di Corso di Studio procede alla valutazione della carriera: in particolare, approfondita conoscenza di controlli automatici e meccanica/informatica/azionamenti elettrici è richiesta ai fini dell’ammissione. Il Consiglio di Corso di Studio può esonerare lo studente dalla verifica dell’adeguatezza della personale preparazione nei casi di:

rinuncia

decadenza

presentazione di istanza di opzione dai previgenti ordinamenti

possesso di un titolo accademico o di sostenimento di attività formative in università estere

passaggio da altro corso di studio dell’Alma Mater Studiorum-Università di Bologna

trasferimento da altro Ateneo

La valutazione avviene sulla base di un’analisi della carriera pregressa.





14

Il Consiglio di Corso di Studio potrà prevedere - per gli studenti internazionali - un’apposita sessione e la nomina di una commissione per la verifica dell’adeguatezza della personale preparazione, compatibilmente con le tempistiche previste dal bando per l’assegnazione delle borse di studio. Gli studenti internazionali che abbiano ottenuto una valutazione positiva sono esonerati dalla successiva prova di verifica dell’adeguatezza della personale preparazione prevista per la generalità degli studenti. Nel caso di soddisfacimento dei requisiti curriculari sopra esposti, il Consiglio del Corso di Studi – o un suo delegato - può comunque individuare particolari carenze culturali in discipline ritenute importanti per affrontare con profitto il Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Ingegneria dell’Automazione. Allo studente a cui vengono riscontrate tali carenze in una o più aree, verrà richiesto di svolgere alcune attività supplementari con l’obiettivo di allineare le competenze richieste con i contenuti dei corsi della Laurea Magistrale.

1.3 Accertamento delle conoscenze e competenze linguistiche Per l'accesso al Corso di studio è previsto l'accertamento delle conoscenze e competenze nella lingua inglese di livello B-2 (con riferimento al CEFR). L’accertamento delle conoscenze e competenze linguistiche si considera assolto per gli studenti in possesso di certificazione linguistica (quale TOEFL, IELTS, Cambridge Esol, ..) corrispondente al livello B-2 o superiore. Qualora il candidato non sia in possesso di certificazione, una Commissione nominata dal Corso di Studi valuta le competenze linguistiche mediante un colloquio. In caso di competenza linguistica inferiore al livello richiesto, il Consiglio di Corso di studio può prevedere che lo studente debba colmare un deficit iniziale, con previsione della propedeuticità dell'idoneità B-2 rispetto agli esami del II anno. Articolo 2. Regole di mobilità fra i curricula del Corso di Studio. Piani di studio individuali È prevista la sola durata normale del Corso di Studio, cioè due anni. Gli Studenti possono presentare, entro la data stabilita annualmente dal Consiglio della Scuola di Ingegneria e Architettura, sentito il Consiglio di Corso di Studio, un piano di studi diverso da quello previsto dal Piano Didattico in vigore, purché nell’ambito delle discipline attivate e nel rispetto del numero di crediti per ciascun ambito previsto





15

dall’Ordinamento Didattico del Corso di Studio. Tale piano è soggetto all’approvazione da parte del Consiglio di Corso di Studio sulla base della sua congruenza tra l’Ordinamento Didattico del CdS e degli obiettivi formativi specifici del Corso stesso. Il Piano Didattico del Corso di Studio Magistrale in Ingegneria dell’Automazione prevede la possibilità di ottenere un doppio titolo di studio: quello da parte dell’Università di Bologna (Laurea Magistrale in Automation Engineering) e quello rilasciato dalla Tongji University, Shanghai, Cina (MSc in Automation Engineering). Possono ottenere il doppio titolo studenti iscritti al corso di Laurea Magistrale in Automation Engineering dell’Università di Bologna che, durante il primo anno di studio ed entro la data stabilita annualmente dal Consiglio della Scuola di Ingegneria ed Architettura, presentino apposita domanda e siano approvati da una apposita Commissione nominata dalla Scuola di Ingegneria ed Architettura. Gli Studenti vengono selezionati sulla base dei seguenti criteri principali:

- curriculum degli studi - conoscenza della lingua inglese - criteri motivazionali

Gli studenti ammessi beneficiano di una borsa di studio, il cui ammontare viene annualmente stabilito dal Consiglio del DEI, e devono frequentare il secondo anno di studi, nonché un ulteriore periodo equivalente ad un semestre, presso la Tongji University, sostenendo gli esami e seguendo le attività formative previste. Tutte queste attività didattiche sono erogate in lingua inglese. Articolo 3. Modalità di svolgimento di ciascuna attività formativa e tipologia delle formedidattiche Ciascuna attività formativa può comportare diverse modalità di svolgimento e di interazione fra Docenti e Studenti. In particolare possono essere previste:

- lezioni in aula - esercitazioni in aula





16

- esercitazioni pratiche - attività di laboratorio - tutorato - esercizi di autovalutazione - interazione remota attraverso la rete

Con riferimento alla voce “Ore di attività frontale” delle tabelle riportanti le attività formative, valgono le seguenti regole:

· Nel caso delle attività per le quali è riportato un valore numerico alla voce “Ore di attività frontale”, tale valore costituisce il massimo della somma delle ore dedicate a lezioni in aula e a esercitazioni in aula o laboratorio, incluse le prove in itinere e le attività di tutorato in aula. Il valore minimo è fissato all’80% del valore riportato.

· Nel caso delle attività formative diverse dai Laboratori, la somma delle ore dedicate a lezioni ed esercitazioni in aula è compresa fra due terzi e il totale del valore indicato alla voce “Ore di attività frontale”. La parte rimanente è coperta dalle esercitazioni di laboratorio, dalle prove in itinere e dalle attività di tutorato.

· Per le attività formative di Laboratorio, le somma delle ore dedicate a lezioni e esercitazioni in aula non deve superare un quinto del valore indicato alla voce “Ore di attività frontale”. La parte rimanente è svolta in laboratorio.

Le ore relative all’attività di Tirocinio sono stabilite in base ai criteri definiti dal Regolamento del Tirocinio vigente nella Scuola, e s’intendono svolte presso la Struttura ospitante. Articolo 4. Frequenza e Propedeuticità Lo Studente non può sostenere un esame se l’attività formativa non appartiene al suo Piano di Studio, o se l’attività formativa non è ancora terminata. Per le attività formative di Laboratorio è obbligatoria la frequenza ad almeno il 70% delle ore complessive previste. Per la frequenza relativa al Tirocinio, si applicano le indicazioni del Regolamento del Tirocinio di Ateneo.





17

Le eventuali propedeuticità sono indicate nel Piano Didattico allegato al presente Regolamento. Articolo 5. Prove di verifica delle attività formative Ciascuna attività formativa può comportare diverse modalità di verifica del profitto. In particolare possono essere previsti:

- Esame finale scritto e orale con assegnazione di un voto - Esame finale orale con assegnazione di un voto - Esame finale scritto con assegnazione di un voto - Prova finale con assegnazione del giudizio di idoneità

Le attività formative per le quali la verifica comporta l’attribuzione di un voto oppure un giudizio di idoneità sono indicate nel Piano Didattico. Le specifiche modalità di verifica del profitto (esame con prova orale, esame con prova scritta, ecc.) per ciascuna attività formativa sono deliberate dal Consiglio di Corso di Laurea Magistrale, o dal suo Coordinatore su delega del Consiglio stesso, su proposta del relativo Titolare. L’esame è individuale, e mira ad accertare la maturità intellettuale del Candidato e il possesso delle conoscenze e abilità che caratterizzano la materia sulla quale verte l’esame. Esso può essere preceduto da prove in itinere il cui esito negativo non influisce sull’ammissione all’esame finale. La prova orale può comunque essere preceduta da una prova scritta preliminare, il cui esito condiziona l’ammissione all’orale. Per tutti gli insegnamenti le Commissioni sono proposte dal titolare di ciascun insegnamento e nominate dal Consiglio di Corso di Laurea Magistrale, o dal Coordinatore su delega del Consiglio stesso. La verifica del profitto dell’attività di Tirocinio si svolge secondo le indicazioni del Regolamento di Tirocinio di Ateneo. Articolo 6. Attività formative autonomamente scelte dallo studente L’indicazione da parte dello Studente di attività formative a scelta guidata o a scelta autonoma deve essere presentata alla Segreteria Studenti (Ufficio Gestione Carriere Studenti, Unità di Servizio Didattico Area Scientifica, Scuola di Ingegneria e Architettura) entro i termini e secondo le modalità deliberati annualmente dal Consiglio della Scuola stessa e resi noti tramite il Portale d’Ateneo.





18

Per quanto riguarda le attività formative a scelta autonoma, lo Studente può effettuare, tra tutte le attività attivate o riconosciute dall’Ateneo, anche scelte diverse da quelle consigliate , purché coerenti con gli obiettivi formativi del Corso di Studi. In questo caso la sua richiesta verrà inoltrata al Consiglio di Corso di Laurea Magistrale. La richiesta di variazione di insegnamenti a scelta autonoma, purché fatta entro i termini e nell’ambito delle scelte consigliate, non richiede approvazione da parte del Consiglio di Corso di Laurea Magistrale. Articolo 7. Criteri di riconoscimento dei crediti acquisiti in Corsi di Studio della stessa classe Questo articolo si applica solo agli Studenti in possesso di un titolo di Laurea Magistrale acquisito in Italia conforme alle disposizioni del Decreto Ministeriale 270/2004 e appartenente alla classe LM-25. Il riconoscimento dei crediti nella carriera degli Studenti persegue il fine della mobilità degli Studenti ed è deliberato dal Consiglio di Corso di Studio, fino a concorrenza dei crediti dello stesso settore scientifico disciplinare previsti dall’Ordinamento didattico del corso di studio, nel rispetto dei relativi ambiti scientifico disciplinari e della tipologia delle attività formative. Qualora, effettuati i riconoscimenti in base alle norme del presente regolamento, residuino crediti non utilizzati, il Consiglio di Corso di studio può riconoscerli valutando il caso concreto sulla base delle affinità didattiche e culturali. Al fine di integrare eventuali carenze di crediti in un determinato Settore Scientifico Disciplinare, a seguito del riconoscimento operato ai sensi del presente Regolamento, il Consiglio di Corso di Studio ha la facoltà di istituire alcune attività formative integrative, distinte per Settore Scientifico-Disciplinare (SSD) o gruppi di settori omogenei, quali cicli di seminari, attività di laboratorio, attività di studio guidato, ecc. Il valore in crediti delle attività integrative varia da uno a tre e comunque deve essere inferiore al valore previsto per l’insegnamento da integrarsi. La valutazione avviene mediante giudizio di idoneità. Articolo 8. Criteri di riconoscimento dei crediti acquisiti in Corsi di Studio di diversa classe, presso università telematiche e in Corsi di Studio internazionali I crediti formativi universitari acquisiti sono riconosciuti dal Consiglio di Corso di Studio sulla base dei seguenti criteri:

-analisi del programma svolto





19

-numero complessivo di ore di didattica svolte -valutazione della congruità dei settori scientifico disciplinari e dei contenuti delle attività formative in cui lo studente ha maturato i crediti con gli obiettivi formativi specifici del corso di studio e delle singole attività formative da riconoscere, perseguendo comunque la finalità di mobilità degli studenti.

Il riconoscimento è effettuato fino a concorrenza dei crediti formativi universitari previsti dall’ordinamento didattico del Corso di Studio.
