Instructions and tips for course selection and registration
- Consult attentively the course list and schedule. Make sure that the schedule for each one of your course selections does not conflict with another.
- Courses have limited number of spaces and may be competitive. Places are assigned on a first-come first-served basis.
- Most classes meet twice a week for 1h30 each session, with the exception of: ZXQ011 Vitulli, ZXQ005 Catalani, ZXQ654 Vitulli, ZXP693 de Vargas Machuca, ZXP705 Paglia, ZXP704 Rinaldi A, ZXP704 Rinaldi B and ZXP696 Pagani.
- Courses cannot overlap.
Before accessing the online registration system prepare your course selection by making a list of the course codes.
Since some of the courses you've selected during enrolment may overlap, make sure to have a couple of alternates to choose from.
- Attendance is mandatory (exceptions may be made for students who, due to the pandemic, could only participate remotely and joining from an opposite time zone). Please read carefully the academic policies.
- How courses will be delivered:
Method of instruction:
- in-person and live-streaming (dual mode)
- online only
Participation:
- synchronous/live and asynchronous
- only synchronous
Read the outlines for each class, at the top of each outline you can find information on Method of instruction and Participation.
When building your schedule, pay close attention to the icons representing the delivery method for the course (eg. an in-person class that is immediately followed by an online only course could be problematic; you will either have to participate virtually on both sessions or find a location to connect to the online only course after you've participated to an in-person one).
- Erasmus + exchange student may only select ONE International Curriculum course.
- All students need to complete the International Curriculum online registration, even if they have already submitted a preliminary course list during enrolment.
- ZXP698 Bettinelli/Casagrande (Discovery of Italy), ZXP704 Rinaldi (The Fashion Market), ZXP709 Cannatelli (Strategic Management), ZXP694 Toccaceli (TV Advertising and Music) are running twice: there are course A and course B; students have to select just one course either course A or course B.
