Preparing the study plan

Information on how to prepare and present a study plan.

1st year and 2nd year students must submit their study plan according to the following modalities, in order to communicate their choices (curriculum and elective courses) and to participate in the corresponding exams.

 

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.

When to present your study plan

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

For the academic year 2023/24, the study plan can be presented during the following periods:

1st year students

  • From September 18th, 2023 to November 10th, 2023
  • From January 15th, 2024 to February 12th, 2024

2nd year students

  • From September 18th, 2023 to October 5th, 2023
  • From October 9th, 2023 to November 10th, 2023 (possibility to also include Transferable Skills / Soft Skills: check the last paragraph of this page). *
  • From January 15th, 2024 to February 12th, 2024

 * For the 2nd year students and the students enrolled in years following the 2nd ("fuori corso") the online study plans will not be available on October 6th, 7th and 8th 2023. This is in order to proceed with the update of the IT systems and to make the option of the Soft Skills available.

Students submitting their study plan within November 10th can modify it for the current academic year during the subsequent period of presentation (January-February 2024).

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

Once the study plan has been filled in online, it is immediately available on the AlmaEsami platform.

ATTENTION: students intending to graduate within the academic year 2022/23 (=within the graduation session of March 2024), cannot submit the study plan and modify the teachings which had been selected before. 

Students who proceed with the payment of the first enrollment rate for the subsequent academic year and modify their study plan will not be able to submit their graduation request for November 2023 and March 2024.

Attention: students enrolled on academic years subsequent to the first one, who have the intention to replace a teaching belonging to years that precede the year they are enrolled on, CANNOT attend the new exam, nor register its mark, until the end of the lessons of the current year.

How to submit your study plan

Online study plan

To complete and submit their study plan, students need to enter their username/password on the Studenti Online platform. The service is active only during the above mentioned periods, foreseen for the completion of the study plan. 

After making the desired choices, remember to click on "save" so that your study plan can be presented correctly.

It is recommended to always print a paper copy of the study plan. In fact, the paper copy represents the only instrument of control in case of formal or substantial irregularities which could occur to the study plan once it has been uploaded on
Almaesami

Paper study plan

Students enrolled on a 2nd cycle degree for a 2nd time ("seconda laurea") must complete and submit the study plan exclusively in paper form. The Paper study plan forms will be available upon request at the degree programme office: cdlm.fashion@unibo.it.

Students having transferred to FAST from another degree programme or from another University and having asked for and obtained the recognition of credits can fill the study plan online.

How to fill in the paper study plan:

Students need to fill in the study plan corresponding to the year on which they are enrolled (1st or 2nd, or as repeating student) indicating an "X" next to the title of the didactic activity they wish to choose. In case of elective learning activities, they must write down the details of the learning activity chosen.

Students intending to replace exams foreseen for the previous academic years, must indicate an "S" next to the title of the didactic activity they wish to replace and an "X" next to the didactic activity they wish to add in the new study plan.

Complete the paper study plan by indicating your enrollment number ("numero di matricola"), surname, name, date, cell phone number, e-mail address, and sign it.

Students having already submitted their study plan for the current academic year but wishing to indicate new substitutions, need to write "modifica/modification" at the top of the paper study plan.

Study plan and exams: When to participate in an exam

It is possible to participate in an exam only if the corresponding didactic activity has been inserted in the study plan and the lesson period has been concluded. This is why it is always necessary to make sure that your study plan has been correctly filled in, that has been correctly saved, and that is visible on the AlmaEsami platform. It is very useful to print your study plan or to save a copy in PDF.

Furthermore, to attend an exam the lesson period of the corresponding didactic activity must be ended. For further information, consult the didactic calendar and the lesson timetable of your degree programme.

 

Approval of your study plan

If you follow the regular set of exams foreseen for your degree programme, there is no need for assessment and your plan is approved automatically and input to your career file. 

In case of specific requirements (e.g. credit recognition or study plan delay request), approval or otherwise will be decided by the Degree Programme's Board.

Transferable Skills (Soft Skills)

The online plans will also show the elective learning activities for the development of Soft Skills activated by the University for the a. y. 2023/24, as part of the Transversal Competencies Project. For more information, please visit the following page: https://www.unibo.it/en/teaching/innovation-in-teaching-and-learning/transferable-skills/Transferable-skills

Soft Skills activities can only be included in the study plan from 9th October 2023, date in common with all the students of the University. This is done to ensure equal opportunity of choice, since a limited number of places are available for each learning activity.

If you are interested in including Soft Skills activities in your study plan, starting from 9thOctober 2023 you will be able to re-enter your online study plan to integrate/modify the activities already included.
