Students intending to graduate in the two winter sessions may only take any remaining exams from the winter session of the previous academic year.

Final grade calculation

The final grade is determined based on the grade point average, calculated on a 30-point scale and weighted by credits, obtained in the teaching units where the exam includes a numerical evaluation.

The Committee then has the discretion to add a score for the evaluation of the final thesis to the average converted to a 110-point scale: this score ranges from 0 to 11 points. The supervisor proposes an evaluation for the final thesis expressed in whole points. The Committee decides on the score by majority vote, after hearing the opinion of the co-supervisor. The final result is rounded to the nearest whole number (0.50 is rounded up to 1). Students who reach a score of 111 may be awarded honors (laude) upon the prior proposal of the supervisor, accepted by the co-supervisor, and by unanimous vote of the Committee.
