Degree Course: Civil engineering for natural hazard mitigation
A.Y. 2021/2022
Autonomia di giudizio
Nell'ambito dell'area dell'ingegneria civile, i laureati magistrali saranno in grado di assumere responsabilità decisionali autonome in progetti anche di grandi dimensioni e di partecipare attivamente al processo decisionale in contesti anche interdisciplinari.
Questo obiettivo sarà perseguito attraverso corsi di insegnamento teorici e progettuali, oltre che con la redazione della tesi di laurea magistrale.
Esso sarà verificato attraverso i relativi esami di profitto e l'esame di laurea magistrale.Abilità comunicative
I laureati magistrali saranno in grado di comunicare efficacemente e interagire sulle tematiche di interesse con interlocutori specialisti e non specialisti, anche di alto livello, in contesti interdisciplinari.
Questo obiettivo sarà perseguito e verificato attraverso gli esami di profitto e l'esame finale di laurea magistrale.Capacità di apprendimento
I laureati magistrali avranno sviluppato le basi necessarie per procedere, in maniera autonoma, nell'aggiornamento professionale e nell'approfondimento di studi e ricerche.
Questo obiettivo sarà perseguito e verificato attraverso gli esami di profitto, la tesi di laurea magistrale e l'eventuale attività di tirocinio.Requisiti di ammissione
In relazione alla nuova disciplina in vigore per le Lauree Magistrali (120 cfu) il Collegio Didattico in Ingegneria Civile ha così individuato le conoscenze minime richieste per l'accesso alla Laurea Magistrale in Protezione del Territorio dai Rischi Naturali:
a) Attività formative di base: 36 cfu dagli ambiti disciplinari "matematica, informatica e statistica" e " fisica e chimica" previsti dal decreto 16 marzo 2007 del MUR per la classe delle Lauree L7 in Ingegneria Civile Ambientale.
b) Attività formative caratterizzanti: 45 cfu nei SSD "ICAR/01, ICAR/02,ICAR/07, ICAR/08, ICAR/09" presenti nel decreto 16 marzo 2007 del MUR per la classe delle Lauree L7 in Ingegneria Civile Ambientale, avendo sostenuto almeno un esame per ciascuno dei SSD indicati.
La valutazione del possesso delle dette conoscenze minime sarà realizzata tramite l'analisi del curriculum presentato e, eventualmente, con un colloquio.
Specificamente, sarà effettuata la verifica della personale preparazione con modalità definite nel regolamento didattico del corso di studio.Prova finale
La prova finale è costituita dalla discussione di una tesi originale, elaborata in modo autonomo dallo studente sotto la guida di un relatore ed eventualmente di uno o più correlatori, in eventuale coordinamento con le attività di tirocinio.Orientamento in ingresso
Le azioni di orientamento in ingresso sono improntate alla realizzazione di processi di raccordo con la scuola media secondaria.
Si concretizzano in attività di carattere informativo sui Corsi di Studio (CdS) dell'Ateneo ma anche come impegno condiviso da scuola e università per favorire lo sviluppo di una maggiore consapevolezza da parte degli studenti nel compiere scelte coerenti con le proprie conoscenze, competenze, attitudini e interessi.
Le attività promosse si articolano in:
a) autorientamento;
b) incontri e manifestazioni informative rivolte alle future matricole;
c) sviluppo di servizi online e pubblicazione di guide sull'offerta formativa dei CdS.
Tra le attività svolte in collaborazione con le scuole per lo sviluppo di una maggiore consapevolezza nella scelta, il progetto di autorientamento è un intervento che consente di promuovere un raccordo particolarmente qualificato con alcune scuole medie superiori.
Il progetto, infatti, è articolato in incontri svolti presso le scuole ed è finalizzato a sollecitare nelle future matricole una riflessione sui propri punti di forza e sui criteri di scelta.
La presentazione dell'offerta formativa agli studenti delle scuole superiori prevede tre eventi principali distribuiti nel corso dell'anno accademico ai quali partecipano tutti i CdS.
• Salone dello studente, si svolge presso la fiera di Roma fra ottobre e novembre e coinvolge tradizionalmente tutti gli Atenei del Lazio e molti Atenei fuori Regione, Enti pubblici e privati che si occupano di Formazione e Lavoro.
Roma Tre partecipa a questo evento con un proprio spazio espositivo, con conferenze di presentazione dell'offerta formativa dell'Ateneo e promuove i propri Dipartimenti scientifici grazie all'iniziativa Roma 1,2,3 … Scienze;
• Giornate di Vita Universitaria (GVU), si svolgono ogni anno da dicembre a marzo e sono rivolte agli studenti degli ultimi due anni della scuola secondaria superiore.
Si svolgono in tutti i Dipartimenti dell'Ateneo e costituiscono un'importante occasione per le future matricole per vivere la realtà universitaria.
Gli incontri sono strutturati in modo tale che accanto alla presentazione dei Corsi di Laurea, gli studenti possano anche fare un'esperienza diretta di vita universitaria con la partecipazione ad attività didattiche, laboratori, lezioni o seminari, alle quali partecipano anche studenti seniores che svolgono una significativa mediazione di tipo tutoriale.
Partecipano annualmente circa 5.000 studenti;
• Orientarsi a Roma Tre, rappresenta la manifestazione che chiude le annuali attività di orientamento in ingresso e si svolge in Ateneo a luglio di ogni anno.
L'evento accoglie, perlopiù, studenti romani che partecipano per mettere definitivamente a fuoco la loro scelta universitaria.
Durante la manifestazione viene presentata l'offerta formativa e sono presenti, con un proprio spazio, tutti i principali servizi di Roma Tre, le segreterie didattiche e la segreteria studenti.
I servizi online messi a disposizione dei futuri studenti universitari nel tempo sono aumentati tenendo conto dello sviluppo delle nuove opportunità di comunicazione tramite web.
Inoltre, durante tutte le manifestazioni di presentazione dell'offerta formativa, sono illustrati quei servizi online (siti web di Dipartimento, di Ateneo, Portale dello studente etc.) che possono aiutare gli studenti nella loro scelta.
Il Collegio Didattico organizza alcuni eventi di orientamento per gli studenti che frequentano il corso di laurea triennale in Ingegneria Civile, nell'ambito dei quali una delegazione di docenti presenta il CdS.
Tipicamente la presentazione è organizzata nel periodo primaverile e offerta sia agli studenti del secondo che del terzo anno.
Nel corso dell'anno accademico una Commissione ad hoc del Corso di Studio si occupa di fornire supporto agli studenti laureati triennali provenienti da altro ateneo.
La commissione:
- valuta i curricula pregressi degli studenti;
- verifica i requisiti di ammissione e gli eventuali debiti formativi;
- propone agli studenti un piano di studi con indicazione:
-su eventuali corsi singoli da sostenere prima della ammissione;
-su scelte di piano di studi individuale per finire di colmare i debiti formativi.
Il Collegio Didattico pubblicizza inoltre le attività specifiche dei propri Corsi di Studio, attraverso il sito web (https://didattica.sic.uniroma3.it/), la pagina Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/ingegneriacivileroma3/) e il canale YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIzDXyx06zKxZzV-mwf1XIQ).
Si sottolinea infine come l'esperienza dello studente durante il Corso di Studio triennale in Ingegneria Civile costituisca essa stessa una attività di orientamento significativa ed efficace per una scelta consapevole riguardo alla Laurea Magistrale.Il Corso di Studio in breve
Il corso di laurea mira a formare laureati con solide basi metodologiche e con una elevata qualificazione professionale nell'area dell'Ingegneria Civile per la Protezione dai Rischi Naturali, che siano in grado di operare efficacemente nei numerosi settori applicativi che ne richiedono le competenze, di identificare, formulare e risolvere problemi complessi e/o che richiedano approcci e soluzioni originali, di promuovere e gestire l'innovazione tecnologica, di adeguarsi ai rapidi mutamenti tipici dei settori tecnici.
Lo studente espliciterà le proprie scelte al momento della presentazione,
tramite il sistema informativo di ateneo, del piano di completamento o del piano di studio individuale,
secondo quanto stabilito dal regolamento didattico del corso di studio.
