The choice of the content of the work should be made at least three months before the course is to be held and with the assistance of a tutor, who is assigned by the LSC Board from among the lecturers of the course itself and agrees with you on the topic.

  • the final test

Contribute to form the graduation grade:

  • the average of the grades obtained for the completion of all course credits for which an evaluation grade is given, weighted according to the relevant credits
  • the evaluation of the report of the naturalistic/environmental campaign
  • the evaluation of skills acquired in other educational activities
  • the evaluation of any periods abroad (the committee may increase, by no more than 1 point, the final grade in case you have done periods of study abroad recognized by the course of study and which have resulted in the attribution of CFUs)
  • the evaluation of the final test itself

When the score reaches (or exceeds) 110, the committee unanimously may award the lode upon the proposal of the lecturer.

N.B.You can graduate only if you have scored no less than 66 points out of 110.
