Finally, outgoing orientation activities aimed at supporting undergraduates and graduates and directing them towards the world of work are carried out by the University Orientation Office which offers job supply/demand matching services, assistance in preparing CVs and other activities on request.

For ongoing orientation activities, the following services were provided:

• reception activities held by the Degree Course Coordinators;
• reception of students by teachers, during the scheduled times published on the website;
• presentations of the subjects chosen by the student by the teachers.

The Department contributes to outgoing orientation also through the provision of type F CFU and curricular internships (see 3.1.4) and through the ALUMNI ARCHITECTURE activities.
