Additional courses

Additional courses are those whose credit points provide more than the 180 credit points needed to fulfil the Italian degree requirements. WBB students who choose to spend the fourth year of studies at Bocconi University can include a maximum of three additional courses in their study plan and one curricular internship (curricular requirements are specified in the chapter Internships), provided that they have passed all course exams of the first two and a half years (only academic activities having an equivalent in the Bocconi study plan will be taken into account). Students who attend the last year of studies abroad can complete the internship experience starting the summer between the third and fourth year of studies.


For students who request recognition of the internship through the yoU@B Diary, such experience will be automatically included in their study plan as an additional course.

Additional courses can be selected from among foreign languages and elective courses.

To calculate the grade point average, only two additional exams may be considered (those for which students received the highest marks; if grades achieved are the same, the courses with the highest number of credit points are considered).

The choice of additional activities (courses and/or internship) is carried out starting from the fourth year of studies by submitting the appropriate form at the Academic Affairs Division Desk from 24 July 2018 to 18 January 2019. Please note that:
  • Allocation of additional courses depends on places available. In addition:
  • If available, additional are included in the study plan only upon making the allocation or change of the curricular elective courses (i.e. 31 August 2018 for the first semester courses, 19 January 2019 for the second semester courses).

Additional courses may be removed by submitting a request to the Academic Affairs Division Desk.

It is not possible to remove an activity from the study plan which has been passed and recorded.
