Location of Institute for Advanced Study of Pavia (IUSS)
The REM programme has an innovative teaching system, with courses provided consecutively (i.e. only one course is followed at a time) with a duration between 1 and 4 weeks, where each week is characterized by around 20 hours of lectures and tutorials. The faculty comprises renowned lecturers from all over the world; the consecutive, short-term structure of the courses clearly encourages faculty from other institutions to participate in the school system. Each course involves lectures, tutorials, coursework and a written exam, with the latter accounting for between 30 to 60% of the final grade.
Considering the broad nature of the REM programme, a number of Introductory Courses will be offered to provide a common starting basis for all students. The necessity to attend these courses will be assessed on a case-by-case basis, considering the background of the Masters candidate.
