Advising and guidance

Delegate of the Master's Degree Course in Veterinary Medicine: Prof. Marco Genchi

email: marco.genchi@unipr.it   

Guidance for incoming students takes place through meetings with students and teachers from upper secondary schools, through presentations at schools, presentations and visits to the department facilities and through individual meetings.

In cooperation with upper-secondary schools, a study-work alternation period is planned each year, during which students attend the facilities of the University Veterinary Teaching Hospital and the laboratories of other divisions in the Veterinary Science department.

Guidance activities also take place through participation in university events dedicated to incoming guidance, such as OpenDay and InfoDay.

In April (as a rule), the University of Parma organises an Open Day specifically dedicated to the presentation of its single-cycle degree courses with the participation of course professors/instructors and students. On this occasion, a video is presented containing the main information about the degree course.

OPENDAY 2022

With the aim of facilitating first-year students in their initial approach to the activities of the degree course, each year it prepares a handbook containing all the information they need to get the most out of university life.

Ongoing tutoring and guidance is aimed at all enrolled students, to guide and support them throughout their education, guiding them, advising them on their choices, identifying and removing any obstacles to successful course attendance.

The ongoing guidance, although involving a delegate, is carried out by all the professors/instructors of the single-cycle degree course in Veterinary Medicine.

First-year students are all assigned, on a random basis, to the professors/instructors teaching the first two years of the course. 

Students enrolled in the third year may choose, by 30 September at the Student Registry Office, their tutor from among the professors/instructors of the last three years, providing three preferences. If no choice is made by the due date, a tutor is automatically assigned.

The student may contact his or her tutor whenever he or she deems it appropriate.
The tutor will stay with the student until graduation.

For more details see the Tutoring Regulations.
