Students currently enrolled at foreign universities may apply for admission to single courses and attend one semester or a full academic year at Politecnico di Torino, even outside international mobility programmes, provided that no mobility agreements are in place with their home university. Up to a maximum of 36 credits may be included in their study plan.
Graduates from foreign universities may also enrol in individual courses offered by Politecnico di Torino, up to a maximum of 20 credits, for curricular, professional development or reskilling purposes, as detailed in the previous sections.
Enrolment in Single Courses involves:
- Attending the classes
- Passing the final exam
- Recording the grade (at the end of the study period, Politecnico will release a certificate with the exams that you passed)
Please note that enrolment in single courses is valid for one academic year only. This means that if a course is purchased in a given academic year but the corresponding exam is not passed by the end of the final exam session (September), a new enrolment in single courses will be required in the following academic year. The related credits must be purchased again in order to take and record the exam.
