Professional profiles and employment and professional opportunities

Il Corso di perfezionamento si inserisce nel contesto scientificamente ben riconosciuto e validato del ruolo dell'attività fisica, della corretta alimentazione e dell’equilibrio psicologico come elementi di promozione della salute nonché di prevenzione terziaria delle malattie. In particolare, il corso riguarda l’intervento di tipo motorio, in un complessivo approccio integrato sanitario, nutrizionale e psicologico in persone con patologie oncologiche. Si intende espandere le competenze delle/dei partecipanti con conoscenze integrate sul ruolo che l’attività fisica (esercizio fisico e stili di vita attivi), il corretto apporto nutrizionale e il sostegno psicologico possono fornire alle terapie oncologiche. Con il corso si intende favorirne la capacità di integrazione degli interventi di tipo motorio, nutrizionale e psicologico di sostegno alle terapie mediche. La struttura del corso crea i presupposti per consentire l’acquisizione di conoscenze e linguaggi condivisi per prendere in esame contemporaneamente i tre ambiti di interesse, al fine di stimolare una forte e proficua collaborazione nella predisposizione di programma efficaci. Gli esperti potranno inserirsi in strutture pubbliche (azienda sanitaria locale, case di riposo, strutture riabilitative, centri diurni etc.) o private (centri fitness, centri riabilitativi, case di riposo, la rete di Palestre della Salute, etc.), presentando, ove non fossero già implementati, progetti di intervento integrato per la salute. La possibilità di autonome iniziative imprenditoriali nel settore dell'attività fisica adattata per la prevenzione terziaria si configura come un settore in notevole espansione.

First-cycle degrees: Bachelor’s degree programme

First-cycle degrees are aimed at enabling students to achieve a command of general scientific methods and content, and to acquire specific professional knowledge.
Admission requirements: secondary school diploma after completing 13 years of study in total and passing the relevant State examination, or equivalent foreign qualification; admission may be subject to further assessment.
Duration: three years.
Graduation: in order to obtain the degree, it is necessary to gain at least 180 CFU; doing an internship and preparing a dissertation/thesis may also be required. Upon completion of a Bachelor’s degree, graduates may continue their studies by enrolling in a Master’s degree or other second-cycle degree programmes and courses.
Academic title: upon completion of a Bachelor’s degree (Laurea), graduates are awarded the title of “Dottore”.

Second-cycle degrees: Master’s degree

Second-cycle degrees aim to provide students with an advanced training and knowledge to take on highly-skilled roles.
Admission requirements: applicants must hold a Bachelor’s degree, or a foreign equivalent qualification; curricular admission requirements for each course may vary depending on each University.
Duration: two years.
Graduation: in order to obtain the degree, it is necessary to gain at least 120 CFU, as well as preparing and presenting a dissertation/thesis.
Academic title: upon completion of a Master’s degree (Laurea Magistrale), graduates are awarded the title of “Dottore magistrale”. Single cycle/Combined Bachelor+Master’s degrees
Some courses (Medicine and Surgery, Veterinary Medicine, Dentistry and Dental Prosthetics, Pharmacy and Industrial Pharmacy, Architecture and Building Engineering-Architecture, Law, Primary Education) are offered as Single cycle/Combined Bachelor+Master’s degrees (Corsi di Laurea Magistrale a Ciclo Unico).
Admission requirements: applicants must hold a secondary school diploma or equivalent foreign qualification; admission is subject to passing an admission test.
Duration: five years (six years and 360 CFU for Medicine and Surgery, and Dentistry and Dental Prosthetics).
Graduation: in order to obtain the degree, it is necessary to gain at least 300 CFU, as well as preparing and presenting a dissertation/thesis. Upon completion of a Single-cycle degree, graduates may continue their studies by applying for a PhD programme (Dottorato di Ricerca) or other third-cycle courses.
Academic title: upon completion of a Master’s degree (Laurea Magistrale), graduates are awarded the title of “Dottore magistrale”.

Third-cycle degrees

PhD programmes: these courses enable students to gain reliable methodologies for advanced scientific research through innovative methodologies and new technologies, and generally include internships abroad and lab activities at research laboratories. Graduates wishing to apply for a PhD programme must have a Master’s degree (or a foreign equivalent qualification) and pass an open competition; PhD programmes have a minimum duration of three years. In order to complete the programme, students must produce a research thesis/dissertation and present it at a final examination.
Academic title: upon completion of a PhD programme, students are awarded the title of “Dottore di ricerca”, or “PhD”.

Other useful things

Crediti Formativi Universitari (CFU/ECTS credits): Italian university courses are based on the CFU system. 1 CFU is equal to 25 hours of study. The average annual academic workload for a full-time student is generally assumed to be 60 CFU. CFU and ECTS credits serve the same purpose and generally have the same value.
Degree class: Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes that have the same learning objectives and activities are grouped into “degree classes". The educational content of each programme is set autonomously by each university; however, universities are required to include certain educational activities (and the corresponding number of CFU credits) set at the national level. These requirements are established in relation to each degree class. Degrees in the same class have the same legal value.
Double/Joint degrees: the Italian universities may establish degree programmes in partnership with other Italian or foreign universities. Upon completion of these courses, graduates are awarded a joint or double/multiple degree, one from each Partner University.
