The same criteria apply also to 2nd cycle graduates in Italy under ex 270/2004 or ex DM 509/99 and gradates from five-year single cycle degree programmes in Italy: graduates from degree programme systems which did not apply a credit system shall be calculated according to an annual credit of 12 CFU and a semi-annual credit of 6 CFU.
3. university degree obtained abroad and deemed appropriate by the Degree Programme Board. Suitability is established according to the aforementioned criteria where it is possible to convert the degree score to the Italian system, and where the subject areas and number of credits obtained in each sector are easily identifiable. If conversion and/or identification are not possible, the students' career will be assessed by the Degree Programme Board.
Admission to students who do not possess the aforementioned requirements indicated in points 1, 2 and 3 is subject to the assessment of the Degree Programme Board based on the students' academic career (obtained credits, scores, final degree scores).
ASSESSMENT OF PERSONAL COMPETENCIES AND SKILLS

1) final degree score of at least 88/110 (or 80/100);
2) minimum number of credits obtained in specific subjects, as shown below:
subject:
ICAR/01, ICAR/02; ICAR/03; ICAR/06, ICAR/07; ICAR/08, ICAR/09
at least 15 CFU.
subject:
ING-IND/22; ING-IND/24; ING-IND/25; ING-IND/27; ING-IND/28, ING-IND/29; ING-IND/30; ING-IND/35:
At least 15 CFU.

MAT/03, MAT/05, MAT/07:
At least 15 CFU

FIS/01
At least 9 CFU
Admission to the 2nd cycle degree in Environmental Engineering for students who do not possess the requirements indicated in points 1 and 2 is subject to the specific assessment by the Degree Programme Board of the students' academic career.
For students in possession of a university degree obtained abroad and deemed appropriate by the Degree Programme Board, for which the conversion of the degree score to the Italian system is possible, the criteria adopted are those applied to graduates in Italy; otherwise the students' academic career will be assessed by the Degree Programme Board.
A special Admissions session may be held for international students, with a Board appointed to assess the candidates' personal competencies and skills; this session will be compatible with the schedule established in the call for applications for study grants (which indicatively expires in May).
All applicants to the international curriculum (Earth Resources Engineering) must possess a knowledge of English equivalent to a B2. If no certificate (given either by the Centro Linguistico di Ateneo or by an equivalent certifying body) is available to support such a knowledge the Degree Programme Board may ascertain it by considering previous academic records and possibly an interview with a suitably nominated commission. In that case, a certification of English language of at least B2 level has to be obtained anyway by the end of the first year of enrollment.
