Advancements in precision grape and wine production (2021/2022)
The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
By attending the course, the student will:
• acquire the ability to understand, analyze and monitor the ripening and post-ripening phenomena of the grapes and the knowledge of the production practices useful for controlling their progress.
• be able to define an experimental design aimed at obtaining -omic data and to apply the correct processing tools for their interpretation.
• know the limits and potentialities regarding the application of new technologies of genetic improvement of the grapevine to develop new varieties improved in relevant agronomical traits.
• know the different approaches for the reduction of process inputs in cellar, based on new methodologies for in-line or at-line control of winemaking processes, combined with data processing interfaces.
Program
• Advanced monitoring systems and precision cultivation practices for the control and management of grape ripening.
• Physiological and molecular basis of grape quality.
• Wine grape dehydration (“appassimento”) and the factors influencing the quality of dehydrated grapes.
• Advanced tools for obtaining, elaborating and interpreting -omics data in grapevine.
• In vitro culture and regeneration of grapevine.
• Genome editing and the new breeding technologies for the development of the new generation viticulture.
• Precision enology, enological aims and development of targeted winemaking protocols.
• At-line control methods and in-line sensor systems, IoT systems and automation in cellar.
• Statistical data processing and development of predictive models for decision support.

Examination Methods
------------------------
MM: PRECISION MANAGEMENT OF GRAPE RIPENING AND POST-RIPENING
------------------------
The learning outcomes will be assessed by an oral test. The aim of the test is to ascertain the knowledge of the topics covered in the program also through the critical discussion of a case study agreed with the lecturer. The depth and breadth of knowledge acquired and the ability to systematically connect knowledge will be assessed. The oral exam potentially covers all the topics of the program.

News for students
There you will find information, resources and services useful during your time at the University (Student’s exam record, your study plan on ESSE3, Distance Learning courses, university email account, office forms, administrative procedures, etc.). You can log into MyUnivr with your GIA login details: only in this way will you be able to receive notification of all the notices from your teachers and your secretariat via email and soon also via the Univr app.
Graduation
Linguistic training CLA
Double degree
The University of Verona, through a network of agreements with foreign universities, offers international courses that enable students to gain a Double/Joint degree at the time of graduation. Indeed, students enrolled in a Double/Joint degree programme will be able to obtain both the degree of the University of Verona and the degree issued by the Partner University abroad - where they are expected to attend part of the programme -, in the time it normally takes to gain a common Master’s degree. The institutions concerned shall ensure that both degrees are recognised in the two countries.
Places on these programmes are limited, and admissions and any applicable grants are subject to applicants being selected in a specific Call for applications.
The latest Call for applications for Double/Joint Degrees at the University of Verona is available now!
