Objectives:
Our aim is to help students to organize their university life starting from the first year, with a view to:
Rules
Students who attend the lectures regularly and start to study individually from the beginning (“attending students”), usually take the partial examinations, which aim to verify their preparation during the course of the module.
At the end of lectures, students will take an exam mainly aimed at testing their analytical, critical, and global skills on the subject. The exam will verify the preparation of students on sections of the program not tested during the partial exams.
The partial examinations are planned as follows:
Tutoring sessions are offered upon student's request.
Partial exams
The calendar of the partial exams is communicated by the teacher at the beginning of lectures.
The possibility of re-taking a partial examination is allowed under the following conditions:
Important:
The retake of the exam will be scheduled, according to the teacher’s availability, at the end of the semester of lectures or on a specific date during the examination session.
The possibility to resit the exam is granted only if there is no more than one failed partial exam.
It is possible to communicate the intention of retaking the examination only after having been informed of the results of all the partial examinations.
The evaluation methods of the partial examinations and their assessments (and consequently the conditions to be admitted to the final exam) are defined, for each module, in the Student Guide.
Students whose average grade in the partial exams is a pass (18 or more) are admitted to the final exam.
Students whose average grade in the partial exams is not a pass (less than 18) have to take the exam on the whole program (total exam).
Both the final exam and the total exam take place during the scheduled exam sessions.
The results obtained in the partial examinations are valid until the autumn session of the Academic Year in which they had been taken, except in the potential case of refusal of the grade as specified below.
EXCEPTION
Students who cannot attend with regularity the lectures and tutorials planned for one or more of the modules organized with partial examinations, can send to the Course Coordinator a motivated explanation, in which they require to take the total exam, without having taken the partial exams.
The communication has to be sent the week before the beginning of lectures, except in case of urgency.
The request can be refused if the motivation is clearly inadequate. If it is the case, the Course Coordinator may suggest alternative options to the student.
If the request of exemption from the partial exams is accepted, students can take the total exam on all the exam dates planned.
Exam session

For 1st semester modules the exam attempts (appelli) are planned as follows:
For 2nd semester modules:
Students who have not passed an exam neither in the session planned at the end of the semester of lectures, nor in the following retake session, can take the exam again during the following Academic Year, in accordance with the same instructions.
Students who have obtained from the Coordinator the exemption from taking the partial exams can take the total exam on all the exam dates.
Students who participated in Erasmus or Overseas or bilateral exchange projects can take the total exam of modules which took place during their period of stay abroad on all the exam dates scheduled, after their return.
Students beyond the legal duration to obtain a degree (fuori corso) can take the total exam on all the scheduled dates.
Refusal of the grade
Students who passed the exam (18 or more) are allowedto refuse the grade just once, as indicated in the article 16 (5) of the Didactic Regulation of the University. In this case, students mustcommunicate immediately their refusal, and they can register only once for a new exam date on the subsequent exam session. If a student refuses the grade, the course teacher will decide whether to maintain valid the grades of the partial exams taken by the same student. This decision will be communicated in the Students Guide.
