Semestre aperto in Medicine and Dentistry

Semestre aperto is the new access pathway to single-cycle degree programmes in Medicine and Surgery (Medicina e Chirurgia) and Dentistry and Dental Prosthetics (Odontoiatria e Protesi Dentaria).

During the first semester, you attend three core course units (Biology, Chemistry and Introductory Biochemistry, and Physics) and sit the relevant exams.

Based on the results obtained, a national ranking list is drawn up to determine admission to the second semester of Medicine and Dentistry or, if you do not rank high enough, to one of the related degree programmes selected during registration.

In this section you will find all the information you need to register, attend the semester, sit the exams and understand the enrolment procedures.
