Credits in preparation for the Final Examination

Second year students must choose one of the proposed activities (15 CFU).

Students of the second year can choose one among the following activities related to their final master thesis project. They consist of 15 CFU. The default option is 'Preparation for the final examination' (cod. 86297); the remaining choices require a change in the academic plan to be asked to the Director of the course, Prof. Vignali, after discussion with the thesis supervisor(s). In order to change your study plan, please have a look at this page (in particular, the section called "CHOICES IN THE GROUP RELATED TO THE PREPARATION OF THE FINAL EXAMINATION".)

The thesis supervisor should always be a professor of Unibo, while co-supervisors can be selected from other research institutes and universities.

  • PREPARATION FOR THE FINAL EXAMINATION (cod. 86297)
    This is the 'default' one. Students master thesis activities will occur within Unibo.
  • PREPARATION ABROAD FOR THE FINAL EXAMINATION (cod. 84629)
    Students master thesis activities will occur in research institutes and universities abroad, under the supervision of a professor of Unibo.
  • INTERNSHIP IN PREPARATION FOR THE FINAL EXAMINATION (cod. 84630)
    Students' master thesis activities will occur in research institutes outside Unibo and will be recognized as internship if they entail practical activities. The supervision of the project will be done by a professor of Unibo.
  • INTERNSHIP ABROAD IN PREPARATION FOR THE FINAL EXAMINATION (cod. 95789)
    The same as cod. 84630, the only difference is that the activities occur abroad.

As a practical guide:

1. Master theses carried out within Unibo will fulfill the conditions of PREPARATION FOR THE FINAL EXAMINATION (cod. 86297), i.e. the 'default' option.

2. Master theses carried out under significant co-supervision of one (or more) non-Unibo researchers will fulfill the conditions of INTERNSHIP IN PREPARATION FOR THE FINAL EXAMINATION (cod. 84630). Students who wish to perform an "Internship" activity for their thesis project can find all the information in this page.

3. Master theses carried out in research institutes and universities abroad will be recognized as either PREPARATION ABROAD FOR THE FINAL EXAMINATION (cod. 84629) or INTERNSHIP ABROAD IN PREPARATION FOR THE FINAL EXAMINATION (cod. 95789).

Students who wish to perform an experience aimed at completing their thesis project outside Italy and with a scolarship/financial support, are strongly recommended to apply for:
