After reaching the destination, students will have to get the confirmation of arrival form signed by the Partner University, to certify the actual start date of the mobility period (orientation/welcome activities or educational activities).
If the students intend to make changes to the study plan agreed upon before departure, it is possible to complete a Learning Agreement variation form, which must be approved by the academic coordinators of the programme at Ca' Foscari and at the Host University.
Before returning from the mobility, students will have to get the confirmation of departure form signed by the Partner University, to certify the actual end date of the mobility period.
As soon as available, students must send to the Welcome Unit (International Office) the Transcript of records issued by the Host University, i.e. the certificate listing all the exams they passed during the mobility abroad.
The exams reported in the Transcript of records must correspond to those agreed upon in the Learning Agreement and any subsequent variation forms.
Students will complete the programme at Ca’ Foscari, following the deadlines indicated in the dedicated web page: Thesis and final degree exam | Deadlines, admission and procedures.
The thesis will be written under joint supervision of a Ca' Foscari professor and a professor from the partner university at the mobility destination.
Once they have obtained the Italian degree, students must inform the Welcome Unit, which will handle the submission of the necessary documentation to the partner University to initiate the diploma issuance process.
Both degrees will be recognized in the country of issuance.
Students who spend their mobility period at Université de Lausanne or at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid will achieve the Ca’ Foscari diploma only, in addition to an attendance certificate issued by the mobility University.
A bonus point will be added to the final exam grade for students who participated in a double or joint degree programme. More information is available at the following webpage: Characteristics and assessment of final exam.
