Assessment

Admission to the programme is assessed by an Academic Board which will verify that you meet the curricular requirements.

If you hold a degree in Class 25 (former Ministerial Decree 509/99) or Class L-30 (former Ministerial Decree 270/04) and you obtained a final mark of 88/110 or higher, you will be admitted without any further assessment.

If your degree mark is lower than 88/110 or if you do not hold a degree from one of the classes listed above, your academic background will be evaluated through an analysis of your academic curriculum and, if necessary, an interview*. During the interview, your basic knowledge and comprehension skills required to undertake the programme will be assessed.

Interview dates are scheduled as follows:

• Monday 1st September 2025
• Monday 24th November 2025
• Monday 23th February 2026
   

* If the interview highlights remediable gaps, you will be assigned a personalised study plan including additional exams taken from the Bachelor's degree programme.

Language skills

Your knowledge of English at the required level will be verified through your academic record and/or a language certification.
During the online procedure, please upload:

• a self-certification issued by your University (if other than UniTS) explicitly stating the level obtained, if acquired during your Bachelor's degree
