not get lost!


General Structure...

Step #1 –

I have to attend the courses

Check the web site: www.economia.unipd.it

Which are my courses?

Where and at what hour do I have classes?

Which is the schedule of the exams?


Step #1 –

I have to attend my courses

Check the website https://elearning.unipd.it/economia/

Courses program, teaching materials, case studies, exercises, articles, resources in order to get ready for your exams!

Access credentials are the same as in Uniweb

If I don’t understand… can I talk to the teacher?

You can use office hours and e-mail


A little «excursus»

Writing e-mail: netiquette!

Professors, tutors, offices staff…

Are not your friends and/or your family!

So… you shouldn't use the language that you

usually adopt when you write a message on

Facebook or a text message (SMS)

It’s a matter of education and respect

But also of “opportunities” because in this way

you’ll reduce the chance of obtaining an

answer.


E-mail of university

To contact the administrative offices, the professors

and the university staff you should use the e-mail

address that you received when you enrolled.

[email protected]



Look at some BAD examples

Hi, I just enrolled at Economics and Finance. I know

that the courses are about to start. Where do I have

to go?

Hi, talking with some friends they told me that

professor XXX is offering the opportunity to attending

students to make a project work. Can you tell me something about it?


Writing e-mail: netiquette! Look at some GOOD examples

Dear Tutor,

I am a student of the second year of the Master program in Business

Administration. The next month I will have to choose my electives, and I

would like to have some information about the possibilities which are

offered by the Department of Economics and Management.

Furthermore, it is not clear to me wheter I can attend electives courses

in other Departments of the University of Padova. If it is possible I would

like to have a meeting with you in order to clarify my doubts.

Best regards

John Doe, id number 123456


A little «excursus»


Common sense rules

Open your e-mail in a proper way

Dear prof., Dear sir.

Introduce yourself

I am John Doe, student of the first year of the MEF

Present your doubts in a clear and respectful way

Close your mail with an appropriate greeting

Best regards, Kind regards

Sign with your name and your identification number

Jon Doe, 123456 MEF


Step #2 –

I have to take the exam

“I have finished my course…now I have to take the exam”

All you need is on the website uniweb.unipd.it!

How do I enroll to the exam?

Where can I see my marks?

How and when will I register my marks?

If you can’t find what you need on Uniweb, you’ll find it on the pages of the courses

e.g. Final exam rules


Step #2/b –

I failed my exam

“I took the exam… but I failed!”

Assuming that the reason is not due to poor study

Plan your exams and your study: you can’t do

everything in one session!

Tutor and study groups


Step #3 – I passed the exam

“What can I do to improve my CV?”

International experiences

Erasmus, ISPM US and China, language courses, linguistic tandem
