Study Plan - Educational Pathway
Every student enrolled in the first year is required to submit a study plan indicating the courses they intend to take in order to acquire the credits necessary to complete their degree program.
The study plan is compiled through a document that includes:
- Completion courses, as established by the academic regulations of the year of enrollment;
- Elective courses, totaling between 12 and 15 ECTS credits.
Note: Elective courses must be chosen exclusively from undergraduate (Bachelor’s level) programs.
The study plan may only be submitted once per academic year.
Without an approved study plan, students are only allowed to take exams for the mandatory courses specified in their curriculum.
There are two types of study plans:
- Curricular Study Plan: strictly follows the program as outlined in the course regulations.
- Individual Study Plan: includes modifications or personalized choices that differ from the standard plan (subject to approval by the Academic Committee).
