Second Level Degree Final Examination

The final examination involves the discussion of an original thesis drawn up by the student, under the guidance of a tutor. For this purpose the student must work for a period in a laboratory at the Department of Life and Environmental Sciences or another Faculty/Department of the Università Politecnica delle Marche. If the Department considers it appropriate, the thesis may be carried out at another Italian or foreign University laboratory or with other private or public organizations.

Application for the thesis can be made by 31 July after having obtained at least 30 credits, with subsequent deadlines of 31 October, 31 January and 15 March. The Graduation Panel (made up of 9 professors) may assign a final grade out of 110 corresponding to the average grade obtained in the exams, with the possibility to increase the grade by a maximum of 10 marks.

“Cum laude” (Honors) may be assigned to students who have an average of no less than 102.51, if the Tutor applies to the Director of the Department at least ten days before the final exam.
