Determination of the final grade
The final grade is assigned by the Graduation  Examining Committee who will assess the overall average grade of all the exams on a scale of 110. Given this average grade, the Graduation Examining Committee might normally add up to a maximum of 8 points, taking into consideration:

  • the evaluation of the work carried out for the thesis (dedication, autonomy, methodological rigour, relevance of results, etc.);
  • the thesis oral defence (clarity in presentation, etc.);
  • outstanding results during the academic career (for instance, the number of exams passed with honors, the experiences at foreign universities or research centers, extracurricular activities, participation in student team activities, etc.)  

If the candidate reaches the score of 110/110, the Graduation Examining Committee might decide to confer the degree with final honors (cum laude). The decision must be taken by qualified majority (at least 2/3 of the Committee members must vote in favor of awarding the distinction).
If the thesis has got the necessary features, the Graduation  Examining Committee might recommend it for publication (dignità di stampa). This is possible only by unanimous decision of the Committee and only if the final grade is 110 with honors.
