Politecnico di Torino acknowledges that regular class
attendance is the primary mean that allows students to acquire the competences
identified in the learning objectives.
The exam at the end of each course is useful to verify
that such competences have actually been acquired.
The dates of the examination sessions are determined by
the Coordinators in charge of the exams from every Department. You can check the dates of the examination sessions on
the Teaching Portal, under the section “Servizi per gli Studenti”/”Student
Services”, on “
Appelli d’esame”/”Examination dates”.
You must
absolutely
register for an examination session following the on-line procedure available
on your personal page of the Teaching Portal. The registration for the exam is
computerized.
Exams must be taken in front of the board of examiners
only. The board of examiners is appointed by the competent Department and
chaired by the faculty member of the course on which the student is enrolled.
As far as currently active courses are concerned (for
which classes have been normally offered during the academic year), the board
of examiners is chaired by the faculty member who was assigned the task to deliver
that specific course.
In case of a high number of students, the Department might have assigned the same course
to more than one faculty member. In this case you will have to take the exam with
the teacher to whom you had been assigned on the basis of the criteria for
class arrangements (division per alphabetical order, course choice, belonging
to a certain degree programme, etc.).
We remind you that when an examination session includes two exam dates for
the same course, you can take the exam in both dates, in case of failure.
Please note that if you have to take an exam that was
already inserted in your Annual Personal Study Plan in previous years, you must
take it with the faculty member who is in charge of that subject during the current
year. You can check this information on your personal page of the Teaching
Portal.
