The Degree Course in Vehicle Engineering is a programme-based course; in order to be admitted, you must take part in the call for applications.

The Degree Course in Vehicle Engineering has established the obligation for all students to compile a study plan. The study plan must be submitted during the third year of the course, roughly between October and November (dates to be confirmed each year).  
Compilation must normally be carried out via the Web on Esse3, under the heading 'Career Plan', and only in special cases on paper using the special form available from the Engineering Student Secretariat (Via Campi 213/b).

Students who have not completed their study plan within the prescribed period will be assigned a compulsory standard study plan that will become their actual plan.

 The study plan must include, in addition to compulsory 
training activities, training activities of the student's choice (12 CFU) and other activities (3 CFU), pursuant to Art. 10, paragraph 5, letter d of DM270, for a total of 15 CFU, choosing them from those envisaged by the Course of Studies as optional.

 Students who have not completed their study plan within the prescribed period are assigned a standard-statutory study plan which becomes their compulsory plan and which envisages the following courses for the acquisition of the 15 CFU as electives: Safety of Industrial Plants (6 CFU) and Electrical Machines and Drives (6 CFU), Advanced English (3 CFU).

TECHNICAL INFORMATION ON THE ONLINE 
COMPILATION The online
 filling in of the plan provides two filling in alternatives, which can be viewed once you have entered the personal area:

1. an 'outline plan'-APPR- whereby the completed plan is automatically approved: in this route, only the courses offered by the Vehicle Engineering degree course are proposed
2. a "plan outline" -PROP- which instead remains in a state of evaluation (it must be approved by the Course Council) and which must only be chosen by: 

• students coming from a transfer/transfer from another Degree Course/Athenaeum who have had optional exams recognised and already approved by a resolution of their Course Council and uploaded onto their electronic booklet. Only in the case in which the cfu of the passage/transfer resolution exceeds 18 cfu (the PROP plan foresees a 183 cfu closure), the compilation of the plan must be carried out by means of the appropriate paper form distributed at the Student Secretariat in via Campi 213/b before the deadline during reception hours; - 
  students who have taken optional examinations in Erasmus that have already been approved by a resolution of their Degree Council and uploaded onto their electronic transcript; 
• students who are sure to participate in the Formula Student project, after having asked the Student secretariat to upload the teaching activity onto their transcript 
• students who wish to sit extra-attendance examinations, after having asked the Student secretariat to upload the teaching activity to their transcripts; it is advisable, if one intends to sit extra-attendance examinations, to obtain prior information from the President of the Degree Course, in order to avoid incurring non-approval, which would lead, in the event that the extra-attendance examinations have already been sat, to NOT being able to consider them in one's career (since they will be considered supernumerary) and therefore requiring one to sit further examinations.

Plans in PROP status will be evaluated by the Course Council following the deadline for plan compilation.

The student will be contacted if the plan is rejected for re-filling.

The Final Examination is aimed at ascertaining the achievement of the specific educational objectives of the Degree Course.

To be admitted to the Final Examination the student must have passed all the training activities envisaged by the degree course. The Final Examination 
may consist of: 
a) the presentation and discussion of a report on the activity carried out during the internship - under the supervision of a lecturer/researcher - in industries, companies or external bodies; 
b) the presentation and discussion of a report on the activity carried out - under the supervision of a lecturer/researcher - in research laboratories of the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia or other public or private research bodies; 
c) the presentation and discussion of a paper on topics related to the subjects of the study plan, assigned by a lecturer/researcher.

The Final Examination may be taken in a foreign language, agreed in advance with the President of the CCdS.

The examining board assesses the final examination and, in the event of a pass, awards a full mark from 0 to 3 hundredths, taking into account the quality of the work carried out and the expository capacity demonstrated.

Tutoring, in compliance with the provisions of Article 13 of Law 341/90, is a service designed to assist students enrolled at university throughout their studies, removing obstacles to successful course attendance and encouraging active participation in university life.

The tutor is a point of reference to whom one can turn for advice, for help in getting into one's studies and for all forms of assistance aimed at making university studies more effective and productive.

The tutor teacher in particular can provide methodological and didactic support, aimed at overcoming learning difficulties (e.g. preparing for an exam, relating the contents of the various disciplines, clarifying doubts on study subjects) or can contact students in difficulty directly to propose support actions arranged by the University.

The reference teachers are:

• Bertolini Massimo, Bassoli Elena, Cantore Giuseppe, Giacopini Matteo,  Vernia Cecilia.

Compulsory propaedeuticities are defined for each course with the aim of facilitating full enjoyment of the teaching provided.

The compulsory propaedeuticities active for the cohort* of students enrolling in the a.y. 2024/25, 2023/24, 2022/2023 and are:

The compulsory propaedeuticities active for the cohort* of students enrolling in the 2021/2022 academic year are:

The active compulsory propaedeuticities for the cohort* of students enrolling in the 2020/2021 academic year are:

The mandatory propaedeuticities active for the cohort* of students matriculating in the 2019/2020 academic year are:

Active mandatory propaedeuticities for the cohort* of students who matriculated in the 2018/2019 academic year are:

In addition to these, there is the OFA which is compulsory propaedeuticity for all the subjects with MAT/xx and FIS/xx in Year I, in particular: Mathematical Analysis I, Mathematical Analysis II, Geometry and Linear Algebra, General Physics.

English is compulsory propaedeuticity for all compulsory examinations in Year III (Didactic Commission of 12/03/2014).

The active compulsory propaedeuticities for the cohort* of students who matriculated in 2017/2018 concern the OFA, which is a compulsory propaedeuticity for all subjects with MAT/xx and FIS/xx sector in Year I, specifically: Mathematical Analysis I, Mathematical Analysis II, Geometry and Linear Algebra, General Physics.

English is compulsory propaedeuticity for all compulsory examinations in Year III (Didactic Commission of 12/03/2014).
