The assignment of the Research Essay is not subject to a merit ranking. When defining the PSP/APSP, it is necessary to enter the name and code indicated on the Teaching portal "Offerta formativa - Curriculum and related programmes".

The research essay is prepared under the supervision and coordination of a lecturer (tutor).

The topic of the research essay must be agreed directly with the tutor who, on completion of the work, shall give an assessment in thirtieths on the basis of the degree of depth and maturity achieved, the originality of the topic undertaken, the disciplinary correctness, the ability to summarise and the degree of autonomy demonstrated.
The recording of the examination is the responsibility of the Course Referent.
