Learning objectives
EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES
1) Knowledge and understanding.
The objective of the final exam is to provide the
student with the capability to understand in depth a specific topic and with the knowledge of the writing
technique and oral presentation of a scientific topic
relevant to the study program.
2) Ability to apply knowledge and understanding.
The student is required to develop independently
what she/he has learned on a specific topic.
3) Making judgements.
The student will develop her/his thesis work
according to autonomously identified development
lines, in cooperation with an industrial tutor and during her/his internship.
4) Communication skills.
An oral presentation of the thesis work will be
delivered to a technical audience (the Degree
Commitee), not necessarily composed of specialists
in the specific field covered by the thesis, but both
clarity and expository rigor must be guaranteed.

The student will increase her/his self-learning skills by
interacting with the Committee which identifies, in
the student’s work, new developments or points of
improvement.
