Studying at the University of Verona
Here you can find information on the organisational aspects of the Programme, lecture timetables, learning activities and useful contact details for your time at the University, from enrolment to graduation.
Type D and Type F activities
The didactic plans of each course of study provide for the obligation to obtain a certain number of credits through optional activities (also called 'type D and F').
In addition to teaching provided for in the didactic plans of other courses and language or IT certifications as specified in the regulations of each course, these activities may also consist of extracurricular initiatives of various contents, such as, for example, participation in a seminar or a series of seminars, attendance at teaching workshops, carrying out project work, additional internships, etc.
As with any other elective activity, these must be consistent with knowledge and skills already acquired by the student.
Those listed on this page are the extracurricular initiatives that the Teaching Commission has approved and, therefore, allow those who take part in them to acquire the specified credits, subject to the conditions set out on the detail pages of each initiative.
In this regard, please note that:
- all these initiatives require, for the acquisition of the relative CFUs, the passing of a test to verify the skills acquired, following the indications contained in the 'Examination methods' section of the individual activity
- the student must include the chosen activity in his or her study plan and enrol in the roll specifically created for the test, the date of which is set by the teacher of reference and published in the 'Examination methods' section of the individual activity.

CONTAMINATION LAB
The Contamination Lab Verona (CLab Verona) is an experiential pathway with modules dedicated to innovation and enterprise culture that offers the opportunity to work in teams with students from all degree courses to solve challenges set by companies and organisations. The pathway allows you to receive 6 CFUs in D or F. Discover the challenges: https://www.univr.it/it/clabverona
WARNING: To be admitted to any teaching activity, including those of your choice, you must be enrolled in the course year in which it is offered. Graduands in the December and April sessions are therefore advised NOT to undertake extracurricular activities in the new academic year in which they are not enrolled, as these sessions are valid for the previous academic year. Therefore, no CFU recognition will be granted for activities carried out in an academic year in which they are not enrolled.

Learning objectives
The course aims to provide the basics of the programming and operating philosophy of the R software, introducing the participants to some of the most recent innovations.
Prerequisites and basic notions
There are no particular prerequisites.
Program
R is an open-source software for statistical computing. Created at the end of the 1990s from the S software, R is a multi-paradigm language that over the course of two decades has acquired a central role among statistical software, thanks also to the development of more than 20000 packages implementing techniques and methods coming from the most diverse fields of methodological and applied statistics. In recent years, thanks to the development of an entire family of packages aimed at simplifying and organizing on a new basis the programming methods and the interaction with R, the software has found new opportunities to express its potential to the fullest. The R language, together with Python, is now considered the reference language in modern data science and, in particular, for machine learning. It easily interfaces with many other software such as Excel, Tableau, Microsoft Power BI, etc.
After the introduction of the R language and of R Studio (the most used IDE for R), the course will focus on the following topics: data processing and manipulation techniques, advanced graphical tools for statistical analysis, graphic representation of geo-referenced information, regression analysis, Monte Carlo simulations, automatic reporting, and production of interactive documents.
Bibliography
Didactic methods
The course "Data Analysis Laboratory with R (Vicenza)" is an optional "type f" activity, which allows students to obtain 3 CFU, once a final examination is passed. In particular:
- The course is available only to students who are regularly enrolled in the academic year 2026/2027.
- All students, of the Vicenza campus, of the CdL and CdLM jointly organized by the Department of Economics and the Department of Management, can register. In case of limitations to the total number of places available, requests for participation will be considered following the registration order, considering that priority will be given to CdLM students, in particular to students of the Master’s degree in International Economics and Business.
- Participation in the course does not require any particular background knowledge of the software R.
- The lessons will be delivered online through Zoom meetings. All the lessons will be registered for later viewing.
- There will be two courses, one in the first semester and another in the second semester.
- The course consists of 18 hours of exercise lessons and tutorial activity (plus 2 hours of final examination).
The tentative calendar of the lessons of the first semester will be available soon.
The tentative calendar of the lessons of the second semester will be available in due course.
Teacher (first semester): dott. Corrado Turella
Teacher (second semester): to be defined
For the course of the first semester, it is possible to register from the 30th of September 2026 to the 30th of November 2026.
For the course of the second semester, it is possible to register from the 30th of September 2026 to the 31st of March 2027.
Please, register through the elearning platform (Moodle). Students without a university IT account can ask to be registered by writing an email to the coordinator of the course. All other students must use the procedure on Moodle.
Learning assessment procedures
Si ricorda che i laureandi di dicembre 2026 e di aprile 2027 non possono partecipare e richiedere l'accreditamento di cfu per la presente attività, in quanto si tratta di un'erogazione 2026/2027, mentre le sessioni di laurea si riferiscono all'a.a. 2025/2026.
Gli studenti regolarmente iscritti all'a.a. 2026/2027 sono tenuti a inserire l'attività a libretto.
--- --- ---
Si ricorda inoltre che non si può mai sostenere la stessa attività didattica più di una volta, anche se in carriere diverse (CdL e CdLM). Nello specifico, se si sono già acquisiti i cfu relativi ad uno specifico laboratorio informatico durante la triennale, non si possono riacquisire di nuovo alla magistrale. Si possono invece trasferire nella carriera della magistrale i cfu di uno specifico laboratorio acquisiti in sovrannumero (oltre i 180 cfu) alla triennale. In caso di necessità, la segreteria potrà intervenire, anche a posteriori o post-laurea. La responsabilità e le conseguenze rimangono comunque a carico dello studente.
--- --- ---
The final examination, which will very likely take place online through a Zoom meeting, will consist in a written exam, followed by an oral examination, if necessary, on the use of the software R. There will be just one date for the final examination.
