The Elective Didactic Activity (ADE), an integral part of the curriculum, are didactic activities chosen by the student. ADE, as an integral part of the curriculum of the student, aim to personalize the student's educational path on the basis of their inclinations and interests, deepening specific knowledge and training aspects by discussion of topics that are not included in the "core curriculum" of the Integrated Courses.
ADE are carried out with ex-cathedra lessons, seminars, interactive courses in small groups and are allowed only after having passed the exam of the related discipline, except for the disciplines of the sixth year. For each of them, the participation requirements, the maximum number of students, and the total estimated time of commitment will be indicated.
The ADE can be organized throughout the year and carried out at times that do not interfere with other forms of didactic activities.
The acquisition of the credits assigned to ADE takes place only upon reaching 100% of attendance.
