CFU RECOGNITION FOR INTERNSHIPS AND OTHER TRAINING ACTIVITIES (AAF)
1. Internship relevant to GH studies
 
 a. Identification of an organization or an institution for the training
For an internship to be activated, it is necessary to identify an organization or an institution willing to host the training.
Internship at an organization or an institution that already has an agreement with Sapienza.
Students may choose an organization or an institution that already has an agreement with Sapienza applying through the TSP portal. Please, read carefully the FAQ and remember: once the Progetto Formativo has been approved, students must have it signed by the host institution, sign it themselves and send it to simona.tortora@uniroma1.it. This procedure must be fulfilled before the starting date of the internship, in order to activate it, otherwise the insurance won’t be operating and the internship won’t be valid.
Internship proposed by the student
If the student wishes to carry out an internship in an organization or an institution other than those with which Sapienza has an agreement, he/she must upload, in pdf format, the agreement, drawn up according to this model and signed - preferably digitally - by this legal representative of the organization or institution or his/her delegate. The document must be exclusively in pdf format, and it must be named with the sole indication of the name of the student and the name of the organization or institution with which the agreement is to be drawn up. If the an organization or institution does not have a digital signature, the agreement must be signed on paper with a handwritten signature. The pdf signed must be uploaded here. 
b. Training project
Once the host organization or institution has been identified, the student must prepare a training project, which must contain the objectives of the training and the activities to be carried out and upload it here at least 30 days before the start of the training. The training project is submitted for approval to the GH Traineeship and other activities (AAF) committee, who will check its consistency with the educational pathway undertaken by the student and the CFUs to be recognised for the activities. Once approved, a notification by e-mail is sent to the student. From this point onwards, the student may begin the training.
c. Recognition of the internship
At the end of the internship, the student must submit the certificate of completion of the internship, giving reasons for any failure (or only partial) achievement of the objectives envisaged by the training project, signed and stamped by the employer and uploaded exclusively in pdf format. This document must be named exclusively with the student's surname and first name and uploaded here. The document is submitted for approval to the GH Traineeship and other activities (AAF) committee, who will check its consistency and the CFUs recognised for the activities. Once approved, a notification by e-mail is sent to the student.
 
2. Foreign languages certificates or IT certificates
Certificates should refer to language courses or IT courses, in Italy or abroad, and should include the results of a final exam, detailing the grade and level of the student.
Language certificates are accepted only if they refer to languages other than one’s own mother tongue and/or  a second official language of the country of origin. In case a student got a different citizenship before enrolling to Global Humanities, the language of the adoptive country is equalled to the country of origin and therefore can’t be used to get the credits of Other Language Skills.
English is accepted only in case the last level certified is superior to the entry level submitted during the enrolment process (i.e. if your entry level was B1 you can present a certificate attesting a superior language level, like B2, C1 etc.; in no case the same certificate used to fulfill the admission requirements can be also used to get the credits of Other Language Skills).
All certificates must be uploaded exclusively in pdf format. This document must be named exclusively with the student's surname and first name and uploaded here. Once submitted, a certificate cannot be employed again to obtain other CFUs.
 
 
3. Conferences, seminars, webinars and other activities relevant to GH studies
Other activities relevant to GH studies, will be announced here.
For conferences, seminars and webinars, students will have to ask the attendance certificate and write a report. Both documents must be uploaded exclusively in pdf format. These documents must be named exclusively with the student's surname and first name and uploaded here.
 
Credits will be granted as follows:

• 1 CFU = 6 hours (conference, seminar etc.) + essay (2000 words, spaces excluded)
• 2 CFUs= 12 hours (conference, seminar, etc.) + essay (2000 words, spaces excluded)
• 3 CFUs = 18 hours (conference, seminar, etc.) + essay (2000 words, spaces excluded)
• 4 CFUs = 24 hours (conference, seminar, etc.) + essay (2000 words, spaces excluded)

In case of doubt, please write to aaf.globalhumanities@uniroma1.it.

La prova finale consisterà nella presentazione e discussione di un elaborato scritto e/o multimediale, di entità commisurata alla quantità di crediti formativi assegnati, di fronte a una commissione di docenti, di cui faccia parte il relatore che ha seguito le fasi di ricerca e stesura della tesi. L'elaborato dovrà approfondire un argomento relativo alle materie di studio e potrà basarsi anche sull'esperienza di tirocinio e stage offerti durante il percorso formativo. Nella presentazione e discussione il candidato dovrà dimostrare la capacità di utilizzare le conoscenze teoriche e gli strumenti metodologici e applicativi acquisiti mediante le attività didattiche previste dal percorso formativo.

To prepare and defend your thesis, the first step is to contact a supervisor well in advance. You need to choose a course and a professor: the course must be part of your learning path (study plan), but the professor can be any faculty member at Sapienza who teaches the subject. It’s important you reach out to the supervisor early enough to agree on the topic, write the thesis, and complete revisions. The timeframe will depend both on the professor’s availability and your commitment to completing the work.
It's also necessary to submit the graduation application through the Infostud platform (you are kindly requested to adhere to the deadlines and follow the official tutorial for the application process).
The thesis must be at least 30 pages, with each page consisting of 1,800 characters, including spaces. During the writing process, you will work closely with your supervisor, who will guide you through revisions. If your project is interdisciplinary, a second supervisor may be involved. As for formatting and referencing, you may follow your supervisor’s preferred style, which could be APA, MLA, Harvard, or another system.
The thesis defense typically lasts about 15 minutes. The supervisor will begin by introducing your work briefly, after which you will present your thesis in 5–7 minutes; if you choose, you can use a PowerPoint presentation. The Committee may ask questions or provide comments. Once the discussion is over, you will leave the room while the Committee deliberates and assigns a score to the thesis, ranging from 0 to 5 points; no extra points are awarded for graduating in time. The final grade will be calculated by adding the score for the thesis to your grade point average, which is based on a scale of 110.
After the Committe decision, you will be called back to hear the final decision and participate in the graduation proclamation.
