Graduation Streaming

As decided by the Department Council, Graduation Sessions held in the Aula Magna “Rita Levi Montalcini” at Cattinara Hospital will be streamed on the Department's YouTube channel. Graduands who do not wish their thesis discussion to be streamed must explicitly withhold their consent from the Programme Coordinator by the thesis upload deadline. In such cases, candidates will be scheduled in a way that minimises inconvenience for other candidates during the Graduation Session. The proclamation will, in any case, be streamed for all new graduates.
