Preparing the study plan

WHAT IS A STUDY PLAN?

The study plan is the complete set of exams that you need to sit in order to graduate. Some exams are compulsory, while others are elective.

A study plan can be presented by properly enrolled students who have paid their tuition fees and, in the case of international students, who hold a valid residence permit.

The Stats&Maths curriculum of the Statistical Sciences Department has created a study plan for its students which is fixed and not modifiable for the first two years of the course. Those students that do not take part in the double degree programme during their third year will have the chance to shape their own individual study plan by choosing among some learning activities called “Electives” for a total minimum amount of 12 credits. See the page “Study plan: your choices”.

WHEN TO PRESENT YOUR STUDY PLAN

You can present and amend your study plan in two periods during the academic year. 

The open windows for the 2024/2025 A.Y. are:

- First period: from 30^th September to 20^th October 2024

- from 2^nd December to 12^th December 2024 (only for those student who are completing their matriculation)
- Second period: from 14^th January to 21^th February 2025

Following expiry of the deadlines, the last study plan presented will be deemed valid and no further amendments may be made.

HOW TO PRESENT YOUR STUDY PLAN

The study plan can be presented via Studenti Online by enrolled students who, accessing the website using their University usernames and passwords:

- need to add optional subjects to their plan;
- need to choose a curriculum;
- need to amend choices made in prior years.

After making the desired choices, remember to click on “save” so that your study plan can be presented correctly.
It is also advisable to print a copy of your completed study plan. This copy is in fact the only way to check for formal or substantive errors that might arise after uploading your study plan.

APPROVAL OF YOUR STUDY PLAN

If you select elective subjects from among those offered by the degree programme, there is no need for assessment and your plan is approved automatically and input to your career file.

On the other hand, if you want to choose exams not specifically offered by your degree programme, approval or otherwise will be decided by the Study Plan Committee.

What you CANNOT do:

• it is not possible to fill in the Study Plan outside the two above mentioned periods;
• it is not allowed to take electives before your third year;
• you need to include your chosen modules in your study plan before sitting the exam
• ATTENTION: Those enrolled for the academic year 2023/24 to the 3rd year and those enrolled as fuori corso may change the study plan ONLY if they complete the enrolment in the academic year 2024/25, paying the relevant fees. If you choose this option, please note that you will NOT be able to graduate in the graduation session of March 2025 (last session of a.y. 2023/24) and you can only graduate from July 2025, the first session of a.y. 2024/25.
