From Thursday 1 October, an additional 4-hour online English language tutorial session (Dr Polsinelli) will be held, on Thursdays from 8.00 am to 10.00 am and Fridays from 4.00 pm to 6.00 pm, intended for second-year students of Public and Corporate Communication, regardless of which group they are in based on their surname (as is also the case for the face-to-face ‘session’ held at the usual times on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4 pm to 6 pm in Room P1, led by Dr Ayers). Further details, including the link to the virtual classroom, are available by joining the course’s Classroom [LINK].

All students are advised to check not only their timetables but also the location of their lecture theatres on the page https://coris.web.uniroma1.it/it/orari-delle-lezioni-e-ubicazione-delle-...
As a general rule, lectures for the Bachelor’s degree programmes in Public and Business Communication, Communication, Digital Technologies and Cultures, and Cooperation and Development, as well as for the Master’s degree programme in Organisation and Marketing for Business Communication, are held at the University Campus, at Piazzale Aldo Moro, 5.
Lectures for the Master’s degree programmes in Gender Studies, Media and Communication Cultures and Policies, Digital Media, Journalism and Political Communication, and Social Design for Sustainability, Innovation and Gender Inclusion take place in the lecture rooms of the CoRiS Department, Via Salaria 113.
We wish everyone a great start to the term!
Students are invited to consult the updated timetable for the first semester, which includes a number of changes (courses in Social Research Methodology M–Z, Semiotic Studies A–L and M–Z, and English Language). We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

In recent days, we have received DOZENS of requests to change study programmes, which is not sustainable. What's more, these requests are from students who closed and saved their programmes a few weeks ago.
As we have repeatedly stated,
- before saving your study programme, you must ensure that your choices are fully feasible (exams from other departments, programme, semesters of classes, etc.)
- The study programme is completed only once, with the possibility of modification once a year during the regular opening windows.
- Reopening and modification entails the cancellation of the programme, with consequent work for the offices, and is also contrary to the Regulations, which provide for this operation only in exceptional cases. Despite this, we have done so several times, but it must be limited to extraordinary cases.
- It is absolutely not possible to proceed with cancellation and modification during exam sessions.
- Many requests for changes are made when the student still has mandatory exams to take, sometimes many, even of the first year; the elective examination cannot be used to 'move' the course in any way; it should be taken and then recorded in the third year. If there are still several curricular examinations to be taken, requests for cancellation will no longer be authorised.
- If a change is planned, there is clearly nothing to prevent the student from attending the lectures of the course they wish to take and then proceeding with the change within the regular time frame, before taking the examination.
Please refer to the Regulations and instructions on completing the study programmes (available here https://coris.web.uniroma1.it/it/percorso-formativo-istruzioni-la-compil...), which should be read in full.
