Study plans

It’s allowed to change compulsory courses following these two strict rules:

• the exam replacing the previous one must have an equal or a higher number of ECTS, in any case not lower than the replaced exam;
• The exam replacing the old one must belong to the same scientific disciplinary sector (see picture below).

In this case, the study plan changes from standard to individual study plan and must be approved by the departmental teaching committee.

MIBE and MEDI students cannot choose courses between the curricula provided.
Students can choose either two courses for a total of 12 ECTS (free choice courses) or an internship of 6 or 12 credits.
In case the student chooses a 6 credit internship, it will be necessary to choose and insert also a course of at least 6 credits, for a total of 12 credits

Our study plan (both for MIBE and MEFI) is structured as you can see in the example picture below:

There is the chance to choose an extracurricular internship of 12 credits, but in this case the student has to ask, before submitting the study plan, to the DD MEDI coordinator, Prof. Alberto Cavaliere (see page ABOUT US).

Given that the FINANCE curriculum provides for free-choice courses to be in the first year, for those students who will enroll in Pavia in the second year, they will be allowed to choose a 12-credit internship, but it will be supernumerary entered in addition to the credits to be acquired. For those students who will enroll in the first year, it will be possible to choose the 12-credit internship in place of the free-choice courses. The students have to get in touch with the FINANCE coordinator (see page ABOUT US).

Incoming students must fill out a form in which they list the courses they would like to take, chosen from the first and second year of their chosen Italian master’s degree program, in accordance with the curriculum of their home university, and send it to the Double Degree office. It is not allowed to attend and take courses with similar contents to those already taken at one’s home university.
