Graduate Requirements

To be admitted to the final exam (Laurea exam), students must have passed all profit exams, completed the required hours for internship attendance, and passed the related exam. For the achievement of the Laurea, students must pass a final exam consisting of:

• A practical test, in which students must demonstrate that they have acquired fundamental technical-practical skills and abilities specific to the professional profile.
• The preparation of a thesis, under the guidance of a supervisor, and its discussion. The thesis, related to topics or disciplines strictly correlated to the professional profile, can have a research, technical-applicative, or compilative profile. Students who do not pass the practical test cannot be admitted to the thesis discussion. Both phases of the final exam will take place in front of a Commission composed according to the law, in compliance with the University's Teaching Regulations and the Faculty and Degree Course Regulations. The Laurea exam has the value of a state exam enabling the profession.
