Scientific Coordination: Prof. Sergio Saponara
Administrative Coordination: Dr. ssa Sara Andrenucci

Lecturers from
University of Pisa, University of Kiel, University Grenoble Alpes

All students will receive a certificate of attendance at the end of the course.

In addition, for all students that pass the exam, a 6 ECTS exam will be also registered and they will receive also a certificate of exam passed.

During the period 28/07/2023-12/08/2023 Prof. Sergio Saponara, Prof. E. Mingozzi and Prof. G. Manara will assist the students via MS TEAMS for the project work part of the lessons.

The exam will consist in completing a technical report (“the project work”), starting from one of the subjects of the course and integrated with data and infos from student experience, assigned the 27/07/2023 in the afternoon.

If the technical report is completed and submitted within 12/08/2023 the 6 ECTS exam will be registered within 31/08/2023.

If the technical report is completed and submitted after 12/08/2023 but within 25/09/2023 the 6 ECTS exam will be registered within 30/09/2023

The technical report will be analyzed by a committee involving Prof. Sergio Saponara, Prof. E. Mingozzi and Prof. G. Manara.
