College requests all undergraduate students and all students of MSc Courses (Lauree Magistrali) to submit their study plan (an example of the format required is available here, students who have difficulties in producing this file from their page should seek help from fellow students who know what to do.

Students should also list in their email which exams they plan to sit at the end of semester 1. Students unsure about the possibility of sitting specific examination(s) should list these examinations and indicate that the sitting is probable as opposed to certain.

College requires this information by Monday the 12th of November. Students unable to supply this information by this date  should write to the College Director and explain the reason for the delay.

The Chancellor of the University and the EDiSU President would like to offer their welcome to all students of the University of Pavia living and studying in EDiSU Colleges.  The meeting will take place on the  29th of November at 6.30 pm and will also involve a testimony by a former College student.

This is a nice social event and an opportunity to meet students from other Colleges. Members of Collegio Volta therefore are stroungly encouraged to participate.

Ilaria Cristiani, a professor at the Department of Construction Engineering and a key member of local government (she is Head of the Departments of Environment, Innovation, Education and Youth Policies of the Pavia City Council) has launched Consulta dei Giovani, a new think tank to advise Council on youth policies.

In a further positive development, Ilaria Cristiani has opened the membership of the think tank to College students and thus I am tabling the item for discussion at the first meeting of the newly elected executive committee of the Volta Students' Union (VSU) next week. I would be grateful, in the mean time, if all College students could take time to read through the papers defining the constitution, rules and application for membership of Consulta dei Giovani.  Members of Volta are given the opportunity to play an important role in shaping youth policies in Pavia through Consulta dei Giovani and hopefully will take this opportunity in order to deliver ideas and proposals.
