Diploma Supplement
In compliance with article 11, paragraph 8, of Minsterial Decrees No. 509/1999 and 270/2004, Politecnico di Torino can issue the Diploma Supplement. This document can be attached to a higher education qualification (Bachelor’s degree, Master’s degree – laurea specialistica/magistrale).
The Diploma Supplement is designed to improve the transparency of international qualifications, as it provides the description of the degree programme successfully completed by the student.  It helps employers to understand and evaluate new academic qualifications; it facilitates academic and professional recognition of Italian qualifications abroad and it boosts international free circulation of graduates. 
This certificate follows the European model developed by the European Commission, Council of Europe and UNESCO – CEPES: it is issued in two languages (Italian-English) and it is composed of approximately 10 pages. 
The Diploma Supplement is not issued for qualifications obtained under the university systems which pre-date Ministerial Decree No. 509/99.
