Learning outcomes
- The course aims to provide the student with the tools to know precisely the ripening and post-ripening dynamics of the grape and the underlying molecular regulation mechanisms.
- The student will acquire skills on the control possibilities offered by modern monitoring technologies and precision production practices aimed at saving resources and maintaining or improving the productivity and quality of the grapes at harvest.
- The student will acquire knowledge on dehydration techniques and their use to improve the quality of the grapes.
- - At the end of the course, the student will have acquired 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.
Program
- The ripening dynamics of grapes and the evolution of quality traits.
- Alignment and decoupling of ripening parameters.
- Physiological basis and molecular interpretation of the maturation process.
- Monitoring systems, agronomic and hormonal approaches, precision cultivation practices for the control and management of ripening.
- Ripening, overripening, dehydration (“appassimento”). Methods and aims of grape drying for wine production.
- The case of Amarone and other passito wines from the Verona province.
- Technological, physical, chemical, physiological and molecular aspects of the process of grape dehydration.
- Study and control of grape dehydration kinetics.
- Intrinsic factors and environmental parameters that influence the dehydration rate and the development of qualitative traits in dried grapes.

Examination Methods
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.

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!
