Learning outcomes
The course aims at providing students with the knowledge related to the matters typically concerning the professional practice and to teach some elements of the organization and management of professional firms. In particular, the course is directed to provide a comprehensive knowledge of the following matters: 1) the economic, legal and fiscal implications of business combinations (M&S operations) extending at these complex topics the notions and concepts already assimilated during your studies. Moreover, the objectives of the teaching are to provide the student with the necessary competencies and capabilities to: a) autonomously individuate, in a specific given company situation, the operation that better met the objectives established by management; b) concretely realize the whole operation, considering the fiscal implications and the accounting impacts on the financial statements connected with the regulatory framework and the guidelines of the best national and international practice. 2) the different roles that can undertake the consultant in the context of the company’s business crisis, with reference to the procedures aimed at recovering the company’s going concern conditions. 3) the main aspects related to the organization and run of a professional firm, without omitting a brief analysis on the laws and regulations that discipline the accountant practice. To have the student aware of the concrete issues of the professional practice, the different topics and matters are developed also with the analysis of real business cases.

Examination Methods
The exam procedures applied to check the student’s knowledge are based on a written test that can be eventually integrated by an oral exam.
The written test is valued on a scale of 1 to 30 and relates to the entire course programme.
As far as the Part 1 (business combinations) is concerned, the written test includes two sections, that are organizes as follows:
- the first section is composed of multiple-choice questions and is aimed at verifying the student’s knowledge on the legal, economic and fiscal implications of the business combinations;
- the second section is based on the methodological implementation of the acquired knowledge on a specific business combination; the student is required to develop the evaluation and accounting representation of the given business combination; this section is aimed at verifying the specific knowledge and skills of the student on the different operating implications of the business combinations.
For the Parts 2 and 3, the exam includes questions with open answers – that may also consist of calculations or data analysis – and is aimed at verifying the knowledge of these Parts and the critical and judgement skills of the student.
The oral exam – which is optional on student’s request if the written test has been passed with a grade higher than 24/30 - is aimed at verifying the communications skills of the student. In particular the oral exam intends to check:
- the depth and extension of the learned concepts;
- the command of language in the explanation of concepts and notions;
- the ability to link in a systematic manner the acquired knowledge.
The exam does not discriminate between students that attend the course and self-taught students.
Type D and Type F activities
Nei piani didattici di ciascun Corso di studio è previsto l’obbligo di conseguire un certo numero di crediti formativi mediante attività a scelta (chiamate anche "di tipologia D e F").
Oltre che in insegnamenti previsti nei piani didattici di altri corsi di studio e in certificazioni linguistiche o informatiche secondo quanto specificato nei regolamenti di ciascun corso, tali attività possono consistere anche in iniziative extracurriculari di contenuto vario, quali ad esempio la partecipazione a un seminario o a un ciclo di seminari, la frequenza di laboratori didattici, lo svolgimento di project work, stage aggiuntivo, eccetera.
Come per ogni altra attività a scelta, è necessario che anche queste non costituiscano un duplicato di conoscenze e competenze già acquisite dallo studente.
Quelle elencate in questa pagina sono le iniziative extracurriculari che sono state approvate dal Consiglio della Scuola di Economia e Management e quindi consentono a chi vi partecipa l'acquisizione dei CFU specificati, alle condizioni riportate nelle pagine di dettaglio di ciascuna iniziativa.
Si ricorda in proposito che:
- tutte queste iniziative richiedono, per l'acquisizione dei relativi CFU, il superamento di una prova di verifica delle competenze acquisite, secondo le indicazioni contenute nella sezione "Modalità d'esame" della singola attività;
- lo studente è tenuto a inserire nel proprio piano degli studi l'attività prescelta e a iscriversi all'appello appositamente creato per la verbalizzazione, la cui data viene stabilita dal docente di riferimento e pubblicata nella sezione "Modalità d'esame" della singola attività.
ATTENZIONE: Per essere ammessi a sostenere una qualsiasi attività didattica, inlcuse quelle a scelta, è necessario essere iscritti all'anno di corso in cui essa viene offerta. Si raccomanda, pertanto, ai laureandi delle sessioni di dicembre e aprile di NON svolgere attività extracurriculari del nuovo anno accademico, cui loro non risultano iscritti, essendo tali sessioni di laurea con validità riferita all'anno accademico precedente. Quindi, per attività svolte in un anno accademico cui non si è iscritti, non si potrà dar luogo a riconoscimento di CFU.
