How it works

The procedure for verifying entry requirements for the Master's Degree in Historical Sciences is as follows:

  • whoever holds a Bachelor's degree in History (L-42), with a final grade of 104/110 or higher, meets the enrolment requirements without the need for further verification and may enrol automatically;

  • whoever holds a Bachelor's degree in History (L-42), with a final mark of less than 104/110, will have to undergo an admission interview with prof. Guido Borghi (guido.borghi@unige.it), after which they will be given the opportunity to complete their registration;

  • whoever has a Bachelor's degree not in History, but in other degree classes, should email the contact person prof. Davide Arecco (davide.arecco@unige.it), both the pdf of the pre-registration in Historical Sciences and all the documentation relating to the student's previous university career, in order to allow the verification of the presence of at least 60 CFU among the following sectors: M-STO/01, M-STO/02, M-STO/03, M-STO/04, M-STO/ 05, M-STO/08, M-STO/09, M-GGR/01, L-FIL-LET/08, L-FIL-LET/10, L-LIN/01, L-OR/01, L-OR/08, L-LIN/10, M-DEA/01, M-FIL/02, M-FIL/03, M-FIL/06, M-FIL/07,M-FIL/08, SECSP/12,SPS/05.

  • In case of a positive response, enrolment will be unlocked and it will be possible to complete the enrolment;

  • In case of a negative findings, a Bridging Career will be activated, for the achievement of the missing credits, in view of the next enrolment (see below BRIDGING CAREER).

 

Bridge Career

If the admission requirements are not met, the student may still enrol in a bridging career prepared by the contact person (prof. Arecco) and activated by the Desk (lettere@sportelli.unige.it) in order to reach the total of 60 cfu required. In general, the procedure goes as follows:

  1. student pre-registers as soon as possible, respecting the deadlines and starting the above-mentioned procedure for the verification of requirements;

  2. the contact person prepares the bridging career in pdf, sends it by email to the student who requests its activation at the Desk;

  3. student contacts the professors of the bridging career to define the programme and obtain other necessary information (e.g. indication of when to take the exam);

  4. once the bridging career has been successfully completed, the student communicates its conclusion by sending the supporting pdf to the Referent (prof. Arecco), who proceeds to unblock the enrolment;

  5. student then accesses the Master's degree by completing the enrolment.

 

The task of the Referees (prof. Arecco and prof. Borghi) is limited to checking requirements and arranging any bridging careers; they are not responsible for providing information and support on deadlines, fees, any overtime etc.

 

RECOGNISATION OF CFUs FROM PREVIOUS CAREER

Within 15 days from the completion of enrolment, if possible immediately afterwards, the student may apply online for the recognition of CFUs from previous degrees (if he/she already holds another Master's degree in addition to his/her three-year degree), uploading the documentation relating to his/her previous career (previous Master's degrees or old four-year degrees are taken into consideration in this case).

The evaluation is carried out by a special Commission coordinated by a contact person (prof. Marco Natalizi).
