Individual modules

Individual modules

At the University of Verona, students may choose to attend one or more individual modules that are part of the various degree programmes of the University (both Bachelor’s and Master’s), for one academic year. 
By enrolling in an individual module, you will be allowed to take the relevant exams, and obtain the corresponding certification and CFU/ECTS credits. 
Unless otherwise specified in the regulations of each degree programme and depending on what is set out by each Teaching Committee involved, you can take individual modules for a maximum of 30 CFU/ECTS credits per academic year.
You can choose from the modules included in the degree programmes taught at the University, as set out in the relevant catalogue.

Please note that it is not possible to choose modules offered as part of the Single cycle/Combined Bachelor+Master’s degree programmes in Medicine and Surgery, Dentistry and Dental Prosthetics, Primary teacher education, and Healthcare Professions courses. 
No modules that are part of the first year of the Bachelor’s degree in Educational Sciences will be available as individual modules.
Please note that passing an admission test is necessary for those who wish to enrol in all modules in the Sports Sciences area, modules in the degree programmes in Biotechnology, Agrifood Biotechnology, Biotechnology for Bioresources and Ecosustainable Development, as well as some modules in the degree programmes in Viticulture and Oenological Sciences and Technology and Innovation and Sustainability in Industrial Food Production. These modules are listed in the catalogue as "Autorizzati con riserva" (conditionally approved), which means that, in order to enrol, it is necessary to send an application form to corsisingoli@ateneo.univr.it and wait for the instructions that will be provided.
Should you need any further information about the contents of each module, please contact the Teaching and Student Services Unit of the degree programme/s that include/s the individual module/s that you wish to attend.

Requirements to enrol in Individual modules

To enrol in an individual module that is part of a Bachelor’s degree, you must have an Italian high school diploma.
To enrol in an individual module that is part of a Master’s degree, you must hold either a Bachelor’s degree, a three-year university diploma, or a foreign qualification recognised as suitable. 
Students holding a foreign qualification who wish to apply for individual modules will need to check with the Individual Modules Office whether their qualification is suitable.

Who it’s for

Prospective teachers

Graduates who study to become teachers can take individual modules after their graduation, if they need to enhance their cv in order to meet the entry requirements of specific open competitions for teachers (please go to the official website of the Italian Ministry of Education, Universities and Research to find out more about the SSD - Scientific-Disciplinary Sector for which CFU credits are required in each competition). For further information, please get in touch with the local administrative office for teachers (Ufficio Scolastico Regionale).
Please note: if you wish to enrol in a Postgraduate specialisation programme, you won’t need to enrol in individual modules. For information about admissions and deadlines, please get in touch with the Postgraduate Study and Teacher Training Office (Unità operativa Post Laurea e Formazione Insegnanti).

Graduates, and people intending to take part in open competitions

Graduates holding an Italian qualification awarded under Ministerial Decree no. 509/99 or 270/04 and Master's degree graduates alike may take individual modules after their graduation for training/professional updating purposes, or if they intend to take part in open competitions.

Students who need to take exams before enrolling in a degree programme

Those who have not passed an admission test, or have not enrolled in a degree programme in time, may choose to take one or more individual modules included in the degree programme in question, so as to have these recognised once they enrol.
Please note: the same limit of 30 CFU per academic year applies to this option, and only the modules approved for this purpose by each Teaching Committee can be selected. In any case, recognition of CFU credits shall be subject to specific validation procedures, in accordance with the teaching regulations of the module in the degree programme, also in relation to any prerequisites (if applicable).

Students wishing to enrol in a Master’s degree programme

Graduates who need to enhance their cv in order to meet the entry requirements for access to a Master’s degree programme can take individual modules after their Bachelor’s graduation.
Graduates are advised to check the number of CFU credits in the SSD - Scientific-disciplinary Sectors required for admission to their chosen degree programme. For further information, please contact the Teaching and Student Services Unit of the relevant Master’s degree programme.

Your exams will be displayed on your ‘pannello di controllo’ (dashboard). If these are not automatically displayed, you can use the search bar you’ll find on your Exams dashboard (Bacheca Appelli d'esame).

PLEASE NOTE: you will be allowed to register for an exam only if the exam session is open (for each module the date of opening/closing of the session will be displayed). Once your exam registration is complete, you will be displayed a confirmation message.
