The set of exams and educational activities required to obtain the Master’s Degree is defined by your Individual Study Plan (PdSI), which may be chosen from among those proposed by the Consiglio di Corso di Studi. It is possible to choose a plan from the academic year of enrollment or from a subsequent year. For example, students enrolled in 2022/2023 may refer to any plan from 2022/2023 onwards, following the corresponding Guides:
- Guide to study plans for the 2025/26 academic year
- Guide a.y. 2024/25
- Guide a.y. 2023/24
- Guide a.y. 2022/23
- Guide a.y. 2021/22
- Guide a.y. 2020/21
Choosing the Study Plan
When to submit your PdSI. It is recommended that you define your PdSI ideally before attending courses and certainly before taking exams. This is particularly important in the case of “free” plans, whose approval is not automatic and can take more time.
How to submit your PdSI. The study plan may be submitted or modified at any time during the year via the CAPS – Assistited Compilation of Study Plans web portal, which is accessible with your University credentials (the same as those for the Alice portal).
Minimum requirements. The rules that every PdSI must comply with are established in the Regulations and Degree Programme Structure of the Master’s Degree. These requirements are automatically integrated into the CAPS portal only for study plans officially proposed by the Degree Programme Board.
In alternativa ai piani proposti ufficialmente dal CdS è possibile – in casi adeguatamente motivati – definire un PdSI “libero”. In questo caso la proposta sarà vagliata da parte del Consiglio del Corso di Studi per verificarne coerenza e adeguatezza rispetto agli obiettivi formativi della Laurea Magistrale in Fisica.
External teaching activities
Not all educational activities are offered within the Department of Physics. For example, you may include courses delivered by the Scuola Normale Superiore and by the Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna in Pisa, as explicitly provided for in many of the proposed study plans. In addition, you can incorporate academic activities to be undertaken at other Universities and abroad, through various schemes ranging from the Erasmus programme to Double Degrees and Summer/Winter Schools.
- Consult the educational activities offered by the Scuola Normale Superiore
- Consult the Studying abroad page for a complete overview.
