Graduate Programmes

Students intending to graduate must:
•    choose a topic, checking curricular/time requirements
•    submit the application for admission to the final examination, verifying the curricular/temporal requirements
•    deliver the final dissertation and microfiches in the prescribed manner

The topic of the final examination must be related to a course included in the study plan and the title must be agreed upon with the reference professor.

In order to obtain approval for the topic, it is necessary to contact the professor. 

The topic must then be entered on the iCatt personal page (Online registrar > Final examination) by the deadline indicated in the 'Four-year and Graduate Degree Programme Calls' section of this page.

In order to be able to submit your final examination topic, you must comply with:

  • submission deadlines: at least 6 months before the session. Details in the calendar
  • curricular requirements: not expected

Please refer to the Faculty Guide of the Milan and Brescia campuses for further details on the final examination.

In order to apply for admission to the final examination, you must comply with:

  • submission deadline: at least 45 days before the session. Details in the calendar.
  • curricular requirements for the summer session:
    • graduate degree programmes:
      • having no more than 42 ECTS credits in debt for the summer session (the "Theology" course and the final examination are not included in the count).
    • five-year degree programmes:
      • having no more than five years' debt for the summer session ("Theology" courses are not included in the count).
  • curricular requirements for all other sessions:
    • graduate degree programmes:
      • having no more than 32 ECTS credits in debt (the 'Theology' course and the final examination are not included in the count).
    • five-year degree programmes:
      • having no more than four years’ debt ("Theology" courses are not included in the count).
         

To apply for admission to the final examination, students must:

  • fill in the application for graduation on your iCatt personal page (Online Registrar > Final examination section);
  • print out the application for graduation form, sign it and affix a €16 stamp duty;
  • obtain approval, by e-mail, for the submission of the application for graduation from the reference professor (supervisor);
  • print and pay the graduation fee slip;
  • upload the following documents to iCatt in the indicated format:
    • copy of the signed application for graduation with the stamp duty applied (.pdf format)
    • copy of the receipt of payment of the graduation fee slip (.pdf format)
    • copy of the approval email sent by the professor/supervisor (.jpg format)

Any changes to the title of the final dissertation, approved by the professor, must be made at the time the application is completed and printed. The title contained must therefore be definitive, as no further changes can be accepted.

Procedure in force until the end of the public health emergency related to the spread of COVID-19 coronavirus

 

The .pdf file of the dissertation must be sent to the professor via the iCatt personal page (Online registrar > Final examination > Submit final dissertation).

Instructions to submit the dissertation: Submission of the dissertation

Undergraduate students who fail to graduate in the call for which they have applied for admission to the final examination must notify both the professor/supervisor and the Student Services Centre of the relevant seat.
Notification to the Student Services Centre should be made by writing via the iCatt Request for information form under Lessons, Exams and Final Examination > Final Examination.

For a subsequent graduation session, a new application for admission to the final examination must be submitted with a €16 stamp duty and a receipt of payment of the Undergraduate Contribution.

In the event that the professor appointed to chair the commission is unable to do it, as communicated close to the date of the exam, a substitute will be appointed to open the exam call on the scheduled date, avoiding postponement of the call. 

In order to reduce the critical situations linked to the excessive proximity or overlap of the date of the end of the exam session (last call) with the date of the start of the graduation session, it will be possible for undergraduates to close their careers (understood as the recording of all exams) within 7 calendar days of the start of the graduation session, i.e. the time required to carry out the checks on the student's career. To this end, the examination calendar will be scheduled so that undergraduate students can take advantage of the profit exam calls as follows 

Students registered in the summer session (June-July): the first 2 out of 3 calls (or the first call out of 2, where applicable). 

Students registered in the autumn session (September-October): first call in 2. 

Students registered in the special session (December-April): the first 2 out of 3 calls (or the first call out of 2, where applicable). 

The last call of each session may also be used if the examination is registered within 7 calendar days before the start of the graduation session. 

Graduating students will receive the convocation exclusively via their iCatt personal page approximately 10 days before the scheduled graduation date (Online registrar > Final Examination section).
