The new website of the Student Orientation Office, with new form and content, is the result of a long process aimed at providing a better and more comprehensive service to its many users. Users are mostly secondary school pupils approaching the University for the first time, and schools' University Orientation Services which organise activities to assist their pupils in post-school choices. Making a decision means choosing the best alternative to satisfy one's expectations, preferences and aspirations.

This postgraduate course is designed to offer professional competence in a rapidly expanding sector of publishing and journalism, i.e. the field of technological and multimedia innovation, as well as the international commerce of books and other publishing products. In the second part of the syllabus, that is, journalism and public relations, the course intends to provide a solid professional groundwork for the variety of roles currently being requested in the field of journalism, from the printed page to radio and television as well as new forms of media that deal with both general public relations, in particular as regards monitoring communication with the public, as well as with institutions such as private companies.
Degree programme annual factsheet (SUA-CdS)
As part of the Quality Assurance system, complete, updated and easily available information on objectives, study plan, resources used and results achieved for each degree programme is made available through the SUA-CdS - Scheda Unica Annuale del Corso di Studio (Degree programme annual factsheet). This includes an Overview and three public sections (Learning Objectives, Student Experience, Learning Outcomes) which together provide a wide range of information about each degree programme. The SUA-CdS also contains an administrative section (Administration and Quality Management) that is for internal use only.
The Degree programme annual factsheet (SUA-CdS), which is currently available only in Italian, is a valuable tool that can be used by the University to design, implement and reorganise, as well as to evaluate, each degree programme. However, the SUA-CdS factsheet is also useful for students, to help them choose the right programme of study.

Per chi è interessato al campo dell'editoria, del giornalismo delle relazioni pubbliche, attraverso opportune scelte tra gli insegnamenti impartiti, il corso intende fornire una preparazione professionale in relazione alle diverse figure che attualmente vengono richieste nei campi di riferimento, dalla carta stampata, alla radio, alla televisione, così come nei new media. In tutti questi settori si assiste sempre più all'emergere di figure professionali alle quali viene affidato il compito di monitorare le comunicazioni con il pubblico, sia nel campo istituzionale che in quello delle aziende private.
Il percorso formativo del corso di laurea magistrale prevede attività differenziate per tre aree di apprendimento con lo scopo sia di fornire e consolidare le competenze trasversali, sia di costruire competenze specialistiche necessarie per operare negli ambiti della comunicazione orale e scritta, del giornalismo e dell'editoria: 1) Area Linguistica e informatica, che si focalizza sugli aspetti linguistici, retorici, semiologici e giuridici della comunicazione con particolare attenzione agli aspetti tecnologici che oggi la caratterizzano; 2) Area Giornalismo, che si concentra sull'approfondimento degli aspetti letterari, storici, sociologici, politici e geopolitici della scrittura e della professione giornalistica; 3) Area Editoria e multimedialità, che mira a fornire competenze specifiche sia nel campo dell'editoria e dei processi editoriali, e in quello a questo strettamente collegato dei nuovi media, delle loro tecniche e dei loro linguaggi, sia sull'impatto che questi media hanno sulle società e sulle culture nel mondo contemporaneo. Le tre aree hanno evidenti zone di intersezione; tutte insieme concorrono a fornire i fondamenti teorici, le capacità analitiche e le competenze pratiche per operare nel sistema dei media e delle attività editoriali, giornalistiche, comunicative.
Il percorso formativo è organizzato per progressione cronologica. Gli insegnamenti relativi alle tre aree di apprendimento sono distribuiti in modo omogeneo nel biennio. Nel primo anno, in cui il corso di laurea magistrale intende fornire le conoscenze fondamentali nei settori disciplinari di riferimento, ci sono soprattutto corsi a scelta obbligata, mentre al secondo anno le attività sono tutte a scelta tra gruppi predeterminati, legate ai differenti ambiti disciplinari in cui gli studenti intendono specializzarsi.
Al fine di implementare le abilità pratiche e le competenze professionali relative alle aree di apprendimento, e di garantire l'acquisizione di conoscenze relative alle dinamiche concrete negli ambienti di lavoro nei settori di riferimento, il corso di laurea prevede la presenza di laboratori curricolari e un periodo di stage o tirocinio presso enti o imprese accreditati presso l'Ateneo.
Le aree di conoscenze e competenze vengono completate dalla formazione all'uso fluente di almeno una lingua della Comunità europea, con una specifica attenzione ai lessici settoriali del mondo dell'informazione e della comunicazione.

In a Quality Assurance system, students play a fundamental role: each student can play their part by participating in the Quality Assurance groups of their degree programme and in the Faculty-Student Joint Committees or, more simply, by taking part in the Student Survey on teaching, or questionnaires. It’s in this context that specific workshops for student representatives (‘Laboratori di rappresentanza attiva’) are periodically made available to students by the University and the University’s Quality Assurance Board.

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.
