Enrolment information for students intending to transfer from other universities.
Are you a student enrolled in a Master's degree course in Law at another university and wish to transfer to the corresponding degree course at the University of Parma? Do you want to know, approximately, which exams and how many credits will be validated?
On the 'Teaching and Programme of Study' page you will find the study plans for the Master's degree course corresponding to the various academic years. In principle, please note that:
a) if you are duly enrolled in a Master of Laws degree course at another university, you will be enrolled in the year following the one in which you were enrolled at your university of origin.
Scheme with corresponding year and reference Programme of Study for those transferring to the Master of Laws degree course in the academic year 2024/2025.

b) if you have already taken examinations that have the same name as those indicated in the Programme of Study applicable to you for a number of credits equal to or greater than the number indicated next to the name of the teaching in the reference Programme of Study, the examinations taken will be validated for you without the need for additions. Exceptions to this are examinations in Civil Law I and II and Roman Law, for which point (c) applies, and the examinations indicated in point (d). Examinations relating to subjects other than those offered by the Law degree course will also be validated as elective examinations, provided that they correspond to at least 5 ECTS credits and are consistent with the Programme of Study;
c) if the name of the examination you have taken is identical but the number of credits acquired is lower, or the name of the examination is different, you must contact the subject contact persons indicated below. The contact person will decide, on a case-by-case basis, which examinations to validate and for how many credits and, if necessary, will set the schedule for the requested integration. You must submit to the referee the syllabus of the examination you have taken; the syllabus submitted to the referee must be certified by your university of origin with an indication of the degree course and the reference academic year, which must be the one in which the examination was taken.
d) Special rules apply to the following examination:
Private Law Institutions: the following subjects are validated as Private Law Institutions for 12 ECTS credits Private Law; Private Law Institutions 1 + Private Law Institutions 2 (opp. I and II; opp. A and B); Private Law 1 + Private Law 2 (opp. I and II; opp. A and B) supported for at least 8 ECTS credits. Validation will require a supplementary module, to be agreed with the contact person, if one of the above-mentioned examinations has been taken for a total number of CFUs less than 8 (e.g: Private Law of 7 ECTS credits) or, irrespective of the number of ECTS credits, only one part of the 'split' examinations (e.g. Private Law I of 13 ECTS credits).
