Attendance
Apprenticeship
Internship and "altre conoscenze utili per l'inserimento nel mondo del lavoro"
The credits for the internship and "other skills useful for entering the world of work" are earned through internal and/or external training activities, as explained below.
The training activities are recorded as an internship as part of the degree application procedures (see Graduating section).
Internal AAFs
The provisional and non-definitive list of AAFs for the 2025-2026 academic year* is available at the following link: go to the page.
The list will also include the activities recommended for obtaining the 3 credits for "altre conoscenze utili per l'inserimento nel mondo del lavoro"
At the end of the activities, the professor will issue a specific certificate** (see forms), which must be sent to the academic secretariat when applying for graduation.
* The list of activities may be subject to change/addition during the academic year in question; please consult the list regularly.
Please note that two teaching certificate formats are available: one specifically for AAF (Academic Areas of Study) and one specifically for other skills useful for entering the workforce. Please complete the correct certificate to ensure the credits are correctly recorded. (For information on recording, see the "Graduating" section.)
EXTERNAL AAF (Academic Areas of Study)
External training activities must take the form of an internship through the TSP Sapienza platform.
For general information and contact details, see https://smfn.web.uniroma1.it/it/tirocini .
External activities must be approved by a CAD (Academic Area Council) before they begin.
When you start the procedure on TSP Sapienza, you must send the request for approval of the external AAF to the secretariat (didattica.dba@uniroma1.it). You will then need to confirm the approval of your training project by the Internship Office and send a copy by email.
The CAD must also request approval of your credits at the end of your internship. In this case, you must send (again to didattica.dba@uniroma1.it) the credit assignment request form, attaching documentation proving completion of the external training program (TSP final report). (See forms.)
For those who have already attended training courses in Sustainability Sciences and enrolled starting in the 2022-2023 academic year, it will be possible to recognize up to 3 credits as "useful knowledge for entering the world of work" by sending a copy of the certificate(s).
IMP: Before starting your thesis work, you must send the thesis assignment form to the Academic Secretariat by email, with a copy of your supervisor.
Minor courses
The Minor is an interdisciplinary educational program, complementary to the master's degree program in which the student is enrolled, aimed at broadening the primary training scope and developing professionals with additional skills useful for continuing their studies and entering the workforce.
Acquisition of the Minor is certified by a University certification, with the issuance of an Open Badge, and, if acquired concurrently with the related qualification, is certified in the Diploma Supplement.
