Examination Methods

The examination includes a written test and an optional oral. It is possible to take the oral examination only if the evaluation of written exam is sufficient (≥ 18/30).

The written text aims to examine student’s knowledge about syllabus arguments.
It covers the various topics in the program and it includes 6 open questions to be answered in a dedicated space. These questions are aimed at assessing the general vision of the discipline, the deepening of the topics and applying the concepts to service management.
To pass the written test and access the oral examination, the minimum score is 18/30 (taking the pass in each question).

The oral examination covers the program as a whole and, first of all, verifies the overcoming of any gaps that emerged from the written test. The oral examination is aimed at assessing the candidate’s critical analysis skills, as well as verifying the deepening of the topics.

The final assessment is expressed in 30ths and takes into account all the tests prepared for the purpose of assessing learning.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE
