Study Plan description

TAF - Integrated Master's Degree

The Study Plan is based on six types of educational activities (TAF), each assigned a specific number of credits (CFU).

The total number of credits required is at least 360 CFU.

The educational activities included are as follows:

  • TAF A: Core foundational activities
  • TAF B: Specialist educational activities
  • TAF C: Related and supplementary educational activities
  • TAF D: Educational activities chosen independently by the student, provided they align with the programme’s objectives
  • TAF E: Activities related to:
    • the final assessment
    • verification of proficiency in at least one foreign language
  • TAF F: Training and orientation internships
  • TAF S: Assessed Practical Placement (TPV)

The Study Plan for each cohort, which includes the list of courses and other educational activities, is attached to the Teaching Regulations and can be accessed on the Study Plan page. Any prerequisites are outlined in the study plan for each cohort.

Courses under TAF A, B, and C are mandatory.
Type F activities include training and orientation internships. Please refer to the dedicated pages for further information.

In addition to these activities, students must include elective courses (TAF D) in their Study Plan, allowing them to shape their academic path based on personal interests and future career goals.

Since all elective courses are activated on a yearly basis, students are advised to check annually to confirm that their desired courses are available. Courses added in future years that are subsequently not activated will need to be replaced by submitting a modification to the Study Plan.

Please note that while schedules for elective courses offered by the Study Programme are optimised to avoid conflicts with mandatory courses, compatibility with the schedules of courses from other programmes cannot be guaranteed. Students should consult the relevant timetables if they are considering courses outside their own programme.

Submit your Study Plan according to the instructions in the dedicated page, specifying the optional and elective courses of your choice.

Additional Information on Elective Courses

The elective courses (TAF D) that can be included in your Study Plan include:

  • Courses activated annually and specifically developed for the educational objectives of the degree programme.
  • Courses belonging to other degree programmes at the University, provided they are consistent with the student’s educational pathway.
