Incoming Mobility for Study

Erasmus+ Network and Student Mobility

Over the years, the Coordinating Structure has created an Erasmus+ network for study mobility, which has steadily grown to over 80 active agreements, including partnerships with non-European universities.

These agreements allow a significant number of international students to join our departments every year, spending part of their academic careers here.

The constant presence of international students at all levels of education contributes to the creation of a multicultural environment within the departments, encouraging local students to take part in mobility experiences abroad.

Our Courses – Course Catalogue and Online Learning Agreement

Each year, the Department’s course catalogue is approved by the Ministry of Education around mid-June. Once approved, the list of courses in Italian and English is shared with incoming students, along with guidelines for compiling the Online Learning Agreement (OLA).

For each academic year and course, the first block listed refers to the Project Lab. Students may select only one Project Lab per semester, and if they choose courses from different degree programs or years, timetable conflicts may occur.

At our Departments, students must attend at least 65% of each course. Therefore, overlapping courses may be problematic, as students who fail to meet the attendance requirement will not be allowed to take the exams.

Additionally, it’s important to understand that students cannot select individual modules from an interdisciplinary Project Lab block/unit, as the modules are usually integrated.

For defining and approving the Online Learning Agreement, students must contact the academic coordinator for their home university within our Departments. The list of coordinators is published on this page and is also shared via email with incoming students.

Course Catalogue – Search Tool

Detailed information on each course is available through a dedicated course search tool. On the course page, students can use the top left menu to switch languages (Italian/English).

Filters can be used to select the learning activities of interest. For example:

  • Academic year: 2025/2026
  • Department: MEDICINE, SURGERY AND PHARMACY / BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES
  • Program: Select from the list above

Language of Instruction

Courses in our Departments are primarily taught in Italian.
A B1 level of Italian or English is recommended. Most professors can offer supporting materials in English, but not all.

Exams are usually in Italian, but some professors may allow students to take exams in English—this is at the discretion of the professor.

Italian Language Courses

The University of Sassari offers a free Italian language course for incoming students each semester, specifically for beginners. The course is usually held online, allowing students to attend even before arriving in Italy.

There are intensive 60-hour courses in September–October and February–March, at the beginning of each semester.
At the end of the course, five ECTS credits are awarded.

Student Portal – Self Studenti Uniss

The Self Studenti Uniss portal is used to register student exams and to issue the Transcript of Records at the end of the mobility period.

Upon enrollment after arrival, each incoming student will have a Self Studenti Uniss account.

Students must log in at: https://uniss.esse3.cineca.it and change their password.

This is an important step to activate access to all online university services.

The platform is also accessible through the MyUniss App, available on Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

Academic Calendar

At the Departments, classes usually run:

  • 1st Semester: early October to end of January
  • 2nd Semester: early March to end of June

Exam sessions are held in February, July, and September, with two available exam dates for each course. Students who do not pass on the first date may take the second.

An academic calendar is available with information on breaks during exam periods and national holidays, as well as class and exam timetables.

Class Schedule

The class schedule is updated before the start of each semester, and any changes are communicated directly to students.

Students can use the interactive timetable through the Uniss.Orario App, which is the official class schedule app of the University of Sassari, accessible via both desktop and mobile.

Language settings in the app can be switched to English, French, German, or Spanish via the top-right menu.

Exam Calendar and Booking

An online search tool is available to view the exam calendar.

Students must book exams in advance during the exam booking window, which is typically open for about 2 weeks and closes a few days before the exam.

Exams must be booked through the Self Studenti Uniss database.

Online exam registration is available for all courses listed in the official syllabus.
Some activities (e.g. optional activities, summer schools, Italian language courses) cannot be registered online.

Microsoft Teams

Students must download the Microsoft Teams App or go to www.office.com/student and log in with:

If login issues occur, change your password in Self Studenti, wait 30–60 minutes, then try again. Sometimes synchronization is not immediate.

Access to the Teams platform is required to join course Teams via:

  1. A unique registration code (for users within the Uniss organization)
  2. An invitation by the professor (guest access) for external users

All course information and updates are shared through Teams.

eUniss Moodle eLearning Platform

Another platform available to students is the eUniss Moodle.

To access, students must use the same credentials as for Self Studenti Uniss.

Before logging in to Moodle at https://elearning.uniss.it, it is important to change the password first via the Self Studenti portal.

Visa Procedure and Universitaly Registration

Students from non-EU countries must apply for a visa at the Italian Embassy/Consulate in their home country.

As part of the visa procedure, registration on the Universitaly portal is required:
