NEWS AND NOTICES

Internship credits can be combined with the thesis, or they can be completed separately.
If the laboratory/department/institution where the experimental activities for the internship are carried out is external to Sapienza, you must activate the TSP Sapienza procedure https://smfn.web.uniroma1.it/it/tirocini. In this case, you must send a copy of the project approved on TSP Sapienza to didattica.dba@uniroma1.it.
Registration of internship training activities (approximately 30 days before the graduation session)
Internship credits are registered through specific exam sessions on Infostud, opened by Professor Gabriele Favero. To register, you must register according to the normal exam procedures. During the exam session, you will be asked to briefly illustrate the content of the internship, optionally with the support of a couple of slides. There will be no evaluation, only the registration. The time allotted is 5-10 minutes for each candidate.
If you are behind schedule and cannot view the exam session, you must still submit the completed internship form (as per the instructions above) and attend the interview on the exam day. However, since you cannot formally book on Infostud, you must send a booking email to the academic secretariat (didattica.dba@uniroma1.it). Credits will be recorded according to internal procedures.
Language certification - recognition of English proficiency: see the section Other training activities awarding credits.

The final exam consists of a dissertation defense, a written document written in Italian, presenting the results of a study conducted under the guidance of a supervisor on an applied problem.
The student learns to conduct bibliographic research, perform preliminary data analysis, and present the rationale and results of their studies in writing and orally to a specialized audience.

The excellence program is an integrative program consisting of training activities that supplement those of the degree program. After graduation, completion of the excellence program is recorded in the student's academic record, and the University awards the student a prize equal to the amount of tuition paid in the final year of the program.
The admission requirements and procedures for carrying out the activities are specified in the announcements for the relevant degree programs published each academic year on the dedicated page https://web.uniroma1.it/trasparenza/albo-pretorio.
