07 June 2020 "From September we will start with lessons in attendance but we will also allow integration with distance learning because we have the problem of crowding the classrooms, so there will be alternations, and on the other we have the problem of foreign students and outside home that will require dad. We don't have to leave anyone behind. " The Minister of the University Gaetano Manfredi told Sky tg24.

The minister explained that the number of exams and graduates has not changed since last year. The university did not stop "and reiterated that" The state exam for access to professions is foreseen by the constitution and therefore cannot be abolished ". 

"No to plexiglass in university classrooms," he announced. "Let's think instead of

extending the time for lessons and a greater number of classrooms. There will therefore be a different organization",  "We will intervene on university fees by expanding the no tax area, up to 20 thousand euros of Isee income will not pay taxes. Between 20 thousand and 30 thousand there will be very important discounts and then there will be specific interventions managed by individual universities to intercept families who have suffered a sudden drop in income and not photographed by Isee " .

"We have increased the fund for university scholarships to ensure that there is an expansion of the access modality. We are working with the State-Regions conference. Then there will be bonuses to bridge the digital divide." "There will also be a major commitment to research, a large government-funded plan," he added.

"After starting with Medicina we are trying to transform the degrees into qualifying degrees in such a way that the graduation exam is simultaneously a state exam for access to the profession. Let's think about Dentistry, Pharmacy and Veterinary that already provide in their system many internships. I will present this bill in the coming weeks in Parliament but I hope that from next year it will be a reality. "  

"We need a greater number of graduates in scientific subjects, in the Stem areas, where women are still poorly represented and it is a big problem for the country and its growth. It is a theme that we are putting at the center of our investment and reform together with President Conte and the government. Among the interventions envisaged is that of greater involvement of the female component. We have very innovative ideas ". The minister announced.
