******* FREE CHOISE ACTIVITIES *******
The student must earn 12 credits by choosing freely between all the activated activities offered by the University (even if they are held in Italian), provided their consistency with the educational project, which will be validated by the Educational Plans' Commission. In the case of activities held in Italian language, the exam could be taken in English or Italian, according to student choice.
However, the Teaching Council suggests using the courses of the Master Degrees in Sustainable Industrial Chemistry or Scienze Chimiche, consistent with the educational project.
