Thesis and final degree exam: deadlines, admission and procedures  

Internship and final degree exam

The final examination consists of two closely related phases: the completion of an internship and the subsequent drafting of a written thesis summarizing the results achieved.

Internship

The internship can be carried out at a company or a local organization, under the guidance of a supervisor from the host institution (company tutor) and a professor from the University (university tutor/supervisor). The latter will also ensure that the work performed is consistent with the student's educational project. The activity consists of the study and/or development of a project.
Procedures for searching and activating an internship are available at:

On-Campus Educational Activity (AFC)

In specific cases (e.g., innovative activities, projects shared with other developers), it is possible to carry out an On-Campus Educational Activity (AFC). This request is subject to the approval of the Degree Course Coordinator.
In this case, upon completion, the student must submit the "Certificate of Completion of On-Campus Educational Activity (AFC)" form, completed and signed, to the Scientific Campus address (campus.scientifico@unive.it), along with the prior approval email from the Coordinator.
