Choosing the subject and the rules on preparing the dissertation for the final examination.
The final examination for the 2nd cycle degree program entails the creation, presentation, and public defense of an original experimental dissertation written in English. This dissertation must align with the program's objectives and be developed under the guidance of a professor of the course or one of the same discipline. The selected topic should be connected to the student's internship or the period dedicated to final examination preparation. The dissertation should demonstrate the student's mastery of the subject, critical thinking abilities, independence, and strong communication skills.
Basic editorial approximate rules to write a dissertation:
The Board will assess the candidate's overall performance – dissertation, curriculum, time taken to complete their studies, transfers from another University or another programme – applying specific rules for each Degree Programme.
The Board expresses its assessment with a grade out of one hundred and ten. The exam is deemed to be passed with a minimum grade of 66/110 and a maximum grade of 110/110. In the case of granting a maximum grade, the Board may also grant honours (lode) by unanimous decision. A maximum of 7 points will be attributed to the discussion of the thesis altogether with the weighted average grade.

The Final Examination Board, having taken into consideration the dissertation discussion and your curriculum, will decide the final grade, which will be proclaimed after the discussion (or published on the last day of the Graduation Session on Studenti Online).
