Graduate Degree Programme

The following criteria are applied for the calculation of the final mark:

BASIC COUNTING	All marks of the profit examinations are added together multiplied by the number of ECTS credits of each examination (30 cum laude is counted as 32). For the graduate degree programmes in Financial Markets and Institutions and in Statistical and Actuarial Sciences the compulsory supernumerary examinations are included in the calculation of the final average. For the graduate degree programme in Banking and Finance, compulsory supernumerary examinations are not included in the calculation of the final average. The sum is divided by the total weight in ECTS credits of the courses considered (average in thirtieths). The average in thirtieths thus obtained is converted into 110ths by multiplying the value obtained by 11 and dividing it by 3.
FINAL EXAMINATION MARK	0 to 8 points
