Graduating

studentessa appena laureata con la tesi di laurea e un mazzo di fiori in mano

A university degree course concludes when students are awarded their degree certificates. The final stage of this process is normally:

  • writing a thesis or report - for undergraduate degree courses
  • writing and presenting a thesis or dissertation - for 5/6-year postagraduate degree andpostgraduate degree courses.

Graduation regulations govern:

  • how the event is carried out
  • how the final mark is calculated - including previous coursework and thesis, as well as other relevant factors.

A minimum mark of 66/110 is required to qualify for the Bachelor's or Master's degree certificate and the maximum mark is 110/110, although honours can also be awarded. In addition to honours, a distinction or dignity may be awarded by unanimous consent and in accordance with individual course regulations.

 

Lecturers can check the originality of theses and dissertations using university dedicated software.
