Respect for the environment and its protection are issues that our society cannot ignore and on which the well-being of future generations will depend. The problem of pollution and depletion of environmental resources cuts across many scientific fields, but it is chemistry that has the most effective tools to deal with these challenges effectively, especially if it operates in synergy with other biological disciplines.
The three-year degree course in Green and Sustainable Chemistry at the Mantua campus will provide the graduate with both the knowledge and skills of a modern chemist and those necessary to guide the transition towards increasingly sustainable and environmentally friendly processes, which integrate in a virtuous and effective chemistry, biochemistry and biotechnology.
The course of study includes lectures, numerical exercises and a substantial number of laboratory training credits, and includes a final internship of 12 credits to be carried out in the company or in university research laboratories or other institutions.
The lessons will take place in the classrooms of the UniverMantova Foundation, Via Scarsellini 2, Mantua.
The laboratory activities will be carried out: ·
in the new laboratories under construction at the Mantova-Hub starting from the AY 2025/2026 ·
limited to the AY 2024/2025 at the Department of Chemical and Geological Sciences, Via Campi 103, Modena. A free shuttle service will be guaranteed for students.

The degree in Green and Sustainable Chemistry has limited access and for the academic year. 2024/25 there are 50 places available, of which 5 are intended for non-EU students.
Registration requires possession of a high school diploma or equivalent qualification. The access methods are regulated annually by a specific admission notice.
Method of verifying the knowledge required for access
The online selection test (TOLC-B limited to basic mathematics and chemistry questions, managed by CISIA, www.cisiaonline.it) will take place on various dates approximately in the period February-September. The test focuses on ascertaining the necessary knowledge that will allow the student to progress in their university studies. In particular, the knowledge possessed in the disciplines of basic mathematics and chemistry will be assessed. The skills required for mathematics include 1st and 2nd degree equations, inequalities, elements of Euclidean geometry and analytical geometry, definitions and fundamental properties of elementary functions (polynomials, exponentials, logarithms, trigonometric functions), while for chemistry they will be basic knowledge such as structure and properties of matter, states of aggregation, elements and periodic table, nomenclature is required.
Admission procedure
The admission ranking will be formulated on the basis of the scores achieved in TOLC B following the rules detailed in the admission notice. If the test has been repeated several times, the best total score achieved is considered.
Type and method of assignment and verification of OFA
Candidates who, despite being included in the list of admitted candidates, achieve an overall score equal to or lower than 10 points in the questions relating to mathematics and chemistry, will undertake an additional training requirement (OFA) in these subjects. The training obligation must be completed by the start of the teaching activities of the second year of the course (approximately 30 September) by passing an evaluation test on basic mathematics and chemistry topics (repeating the TOLC-B test or passing of tests equivalent to it; at least two exams during the year). Passing the OFA is preparatory to taking the first year exams whose scientific disciplinary sector of reference is Mathematics (MAT/xx) or Chemistry (CHIM/xx). To help pass the OFA, specific recovery, tutoring and study support activities will be organised.
Transfer from other study courses or other universities is permitted subject to verification of knowledge and skills actually possessed, possibly resorting to supplementary interviews.
Any recognition of CFU will take place by the Degree Course according to the criteria detailed in the Study Course Regulations.
