Students do not need to register to courses (except for SIE, CLA and VIU)
BUT THEY MUST SIGN UP TO EXAMS of ALL THE COURSES LISTED IN THE LEARNING
AGREEMENT (online procedure to be done about one week before the exam date).

IMPORTANT: starting from the a.y. 2023/2024, incoming students are no longer allowed topick single modules out of a 2 modules course.
In other words, if they wish to take a course that amounts to 12 ECTS, and is split into twomodules (6 out of 12 ECTS each), they will have to attend both modules and the exam will
only be validated for 12 ECTS. If you fail to attend both modules, we will not be recognising
the exam as passed.
Please find an example of a 12 ECTS course split into 2 modules. The course EM1A13
MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY ART is worth 12 ECTS, but split into two modules, eachone amounting to 6 ECTS out of 12. If students wish to take this course, they must follow bothmodules, and will not be allowed to follow just one of them (not just MODERN ART or
CONTEMPORARY ART, but both).
