Learning outcomes
The course aims to provide the basic knowledge for writing programs in an imperative procedural language (e.g., C Language), with emphasis on the relationship between the program and the architecture of the computer running the program, on the concept of recursion and on the implementation of data structures. At the end of the course the students will have to demonstrate that they are able to translate an algorithm into a program written with an imperative procedural language by organizing the related data structures and to be able to optimize it through debugging and profiling techniques. The students must also demonstrate that they have the necessary skills to continue their studies independently in the field of programming and software development.

Examination Methods
The exam, unified with the Laboratory module, consists in two parts, that will take place around February (first part) and June (second part). The exam will be passed if both parts are sufficient. The final global mark will be the composition (average) of the marks of the two parts. Students who do not pass these partial exams can try again in the normal 4 examinations scattered around the year, starting from June. Those exams are on the total program of the course.
The exams (partial as well as total) verify the ability in coding simple programs to the computer or a written exam.
To pass the exam, the students have to show:
- they have understood the principles related to the programming in C language
- they are able to develop C code and to analyze its correctness and problems through debugging
- they are able to apply the acquired knowledge to implement algorithms in C code by starting from specifications given as exercises.
The emphasis in the evaluation will be given to the ability to organize algorithms and data structures and to translate them into the C language.
Type D and Type F activities
Le attività formative di tipologia D sono a scelta dello studente, quelle di tipologia F sono ulteriori conoscenze utili all’inserimento nel mondo del lavoro (tirocini, competenze trasversali, project works, ecc.). In base al Regolamento Didattico del Corso, alcune attività possono essere scelte e inserite autonomamente a libretto, altre devono essere approvate da apposita commissione per verificarne la coerenza con il piano di studio. Le attività formative di tipologia D o F possono essere ricoperte dalle seguenti attività.
1. Insegnamenti impartiti presso l'Università di Verona
Comprendono gli insegnamenti sotto riportati e/o nel Catalogo degli insegnamenti (che può essere filtrato anche per lingua di erogazione tramite la Ricerca avanzata).
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: se l'insegnamento è compreso tra quelli sottoelencati, lo studente può inserirlo autonomamente durante il periodo in cui il piano di studi è aperto; in caso contrario, lo studente deve fare richiesta alla Segreteria, inviando a carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it il modulo nel periodo indicato.
2. Attestato o equipollenza linguistica CLA
Oltre a quelle richieste dal piano di studi, per gli immatricolati A.A. 2021/2022 e A.A. 2022/2023 vengono riconosciute:
- Lingua inglese: vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per ogni livello di competenza superiore a quello richiesto dal corso di studio (se non già riconosciuto nel ciclo di studi precedente).
- Altre lingue e italiano per stranieri: vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per ogni livello di competenza a partire da A2 (se non già riconosciuto nel ciclo di studi precedente).
Tali cfu saranno riconosciuti, fino ad un massimo di 3 cfu complessivi, di tipologia D. Solo nel caso in cui la data di acquisizione della certificazione sia precedente al 27/10/2023 (data della delibera del Collegio didattico di Ingegneria dell'Informazione) potranno essere riconosciuti un massimo di 6 CFU, come precedentemente previsto. Ulteriori crediti a scelta per conoscenze linguistiche potranno essere riconosciuti solo se coerenti con il progetto formativo dello studente e se adeguatamente motivati.
Per gli immatricolati A.A. 2023/2024 i crediti per certificazioni linguistiche ulteriori a quelle previste dal piano didattico vengono riconosciuti come crediti sovrannumerari taf D.
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: richiedere l’attestato o l'equipollenza al CLA e inviarlo alla Segreteria Studenti - Carriere per l’inserimento dell’esame in carriera, tramite mail: carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it
3. Competenze trasversali
Scopri i percorsi formativi promossi dal TALC - Teaching and learning center dell'Ateneo, destinati agli studenti regolarmente iscritti all'anno accademico di erogazione del corso https://talc.univr.it/it/competenze-trasversali
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: non è previsto l'inserimento dell'insegnamento nel piano di studi. Solo in seguito all'ottenimento dell'Open Badge verranno automaticamente convalidati i CFU a libretto. La registrazione dei CFU in carriera non è istantanea, ma ci saranno da attendere dei tempi tecnici.
4. Periodo di stage/tirocinio
Oltre ai CFU previsti dal piano di studi (verificare attentamente quanto indicato sul Regolamento Didattico): qui il VADEMECUM DELLE ATTIVITÀ DI TIROCINIO (indirizzo email della Commissione tirocini: tirocini-ismp@ateneo.univr.it ); qui la relativa pagina informativa (con link a moodle); qui informazioni su come attivarlo.

Attendance modes and venues
The inter-university nature of the course of study lies in the cooperation of the three universities in the provision of faculty. Therefore, teaching delivery takes place at the administrative and teaching site in Verona and not in the partner universities. This means that it is not possible to attend this bachelor's degree program in the University of Trento or Modena-Reggio Emilia; however, it is possible to use the study spaces of the partner universities, thanks to the agreement between them.
As stated in the Didactic Regulations, course attendance is not mandatory.
Part-time enrolment is permitted. Find out more on the Part-time enrolment possibilities page.
The course's teaching activities take place in the Science and Engineering area, which consists of the buildings of Ca‘ Vignal 1, Ca’ Vignal 2, Ca' Vignal 3 and Piramide, located in the Borgo Roma campus.
Lectures are held in the classrooms of Ca‘ Vignal 1, Ca’ Vignal 2 and Ca' Vignal 3, while practical exercises take place in the teaching laboratories dedicated to the various activities.

Graduation
The final exam carries 6CFU.
The final exam is taken at the presence of two faculty members, including the Supervisor, and consists of one or both of the following options:
-
A brief written report, which may also be in English, describing the thesis work;
-
An oral presentation, supported by slides (such as PowerPoint), that illustrates the thesis work, which may also be in English.
Following the exam, the graduation takes place on the dates set in the Academic Calendar.
The final degree score is determined by a Graduation Committee composed of at least three faculty members, including the supervisor. The supervisor can be any tenured professor from the University of Verona, the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, or the University of Trento. Committee members must belong to a scientific-disciplinary sector (SSD) within the degree programme plan.
The Graduation Committee assigns a final grade on a scale of 110, with the possibility of honors. The minimum score required to pass the final exam is 66/110. The admission grade is determined by converting the weighted average of the course grades (based on CFUs) to a 110-point scale and rounding to the nearest whole number. There may be an increase of up to Studying at the University of Verona – Graduation

There may be an increase of up to 8/110 points on the admission grade, with the final exam being worth up to 4 of points, and 4 points for the evaluation of the student's academic curriculum.
The evaluation of the academic curriculum is based on the following criteria (which positively account for honors and Erasmus periods and negatively for any delays in the course of study):
-
If on time: 3.5 + 0.2 * number of honors;
-
If delayed: 3.5 - 0.5 * number of extra years + 0.1 * number of honors;
-
1 point for every 3 months of completed Erasmus study.
Additionally, 2 extra points will be awarded for completing at least 12 CFU at foreign universities.
In any case, the total increase from the evaluation of the thesis and the academic record cannot exceed 8 points.
The award of final honors, in the case of a score of at least 110, is at the discretion of the Graduation Committee and is only granted if the committee's decision is unanimous.
