Transfers


The Chemical and Process Engineering programs encourage the enrollment and transfers of students who have obtained a degree in Chemical and Material Engineering in other universities or who are attending courses different from Chemical and Material Engineering.


Enrollment in the Master degree in Chemical and Process Engineering is subject to the fulfillment of specific requirements. They are reported in the Admission Notice of the School of Engineering, available on this page , which also describes the formal procedure which students must follow for pre-enrollment and for the official request of prior assessment and credit recognition. Typically, the document is updated once a year, well in advance (July) with respect to the deadlines of the next academic year.


Interested candidates, however, may at any time obtain an informal assessment of their entry title by making a request to the Student Practices Committee of the Degree Programme. The Committee’s opinion is only indicative and not official; in fact, the only official decision is that which is given following the submission of an official application for assessment of the minimum curricular requirements, in accordance with the University procedure. Informal assessment, however, makes it possible to obtain a reliable response very quickly, at any time of the year and at no cost.

Beyond the formal aspects that must be complied with (there is a minimum number of CFUs that must have been acquired in specific scientific-disciplinary sectors), what is important is that each student, interested in transferring to the Master’s Degree Programme, carries out a self-assessment of their knowledge, skills and abilities in certain disciplines, as set out in this Syllabus.

Students who believe to possess the listed skills will be able to join the Master’s Degree Programme with confidence. Those who feel they are lacking in some of the skills are invited to acquire them independently before starting to attend the courses. The Degree Programme Coordinator will always be available to provide interested students with information on the material available for individual study. No assessment of attainment of the required prior knowledge will be made: each student will be responsible for his or her own basic training.


In order to obtain the informal assessment, applicants must send an e-mail to the Student Practices Committee (pratiche.studenti.LM.IC@dii.unipd.it) with the subject “Transfer Student First Name Last Name from University”. The email must contain the description of the request and the following documents must be attached:
– the study plan of the degree programme (Bachelor’s degree) and/or Master’s degree programme attended;
– the scientific-disciplinary sectors (SSD) related to each of the courses indicated in point 1;
– the syllabus of each of the courses indicated in point 1.

Any email communication subsequent to the first one must always report the entire history of the email messages already exchanged, in order to allow the reader (even at a distance of time) to immediately reconstruct all the communications already exchanged (i.e. always use the REPLY button for all emails subsequent to the first one sent).
Important notice: the procedure described above is only foreseen for students who wish to transfer from another Italian university or hold an entry qualification obtained in Italy. Other types of requests will be discarded.
