The final grade is the result of the sum of:

• curricular average (expressed in one hundredths)
• evaluation of the final paper: the maximum total score attributable to the final paper is 8 points assigned as follows:
  • from 0 to 6 points to the quality of the paper
  • from 0 to 2 points to the ability to present and discuss the paper, or responding to questions formulated by the co-rapporteur and the committee
• eventual period abroad: if you have earned
  • from 6 to 11 cfu you will have to add 0.5 points
  • from 12 to 18 cfu you will have to add 1 point
  • beyond 18 CFUs you will have to add 2 points
• the grade 30 cum laude: translates to 31 whatever the number of CFUs of the teaching

The final grade will be rounded:

• by default, if the decimals are less than or equal to 5
• by excess, if the decimals are greater than 5

The final test is passed if you obtained a grade of not less than 66 points out of 110.

If your score reaches (or exceeds) 110, the committee may award honors only if:

• your career has a score of at least 104
• you have been awarded 6 points for the thesis

To obtain honors, your thesis advisor must notify the director of the request before the graduation session. The director will appoint two co-rapporteurs and also forward the reasoned request to the committee members.

Honor and dignity of press must be voted unanimously.
