The Degree Programme in Dentistry structures its teaching activities through lectures, exercises, free courses and other methods decided at the level of the course of study regulations.
The Degree Programme may be divided into curricula that will be specified in the regulations of the course of study.
The time reserved for personal study, as a rule, is equal to at least 50% of the total hourly commitment with the possibility of lower percentages for individual training activities with a high experimental or practical content.
To obtain the degree, students must have acquired at least 360 university credits, including those relating to the final examination. After passing the final degree exam, the student obtains a graduate degree in Dentistry.
The competent Degree Programme Committee annually determines:
- courses that can be supplemented by exercises, workshops, seminars, supplementary courses and other forms of teaching;
- the list of courses actually activated and the distribution of the same among the various years of the programme and the possible sub-units (semesters, quarters or other periodizations), indicating which courses are accompanied by supplementary teaching activities;
- the attribution of university credits to the various teaching and training activities;
- the criteria and procedures for the recognition, without prejudice to the minimum quota recognized pursuant to the regulatory provisions in force, of the greatest possible number of credits already acquired by the student in previous training courses.
The courses conclude with an evaluation test, which must in any case be expressed by means of a mark out of thirty. This may also apply to other supplementary forms of teaching for which suitability may also be required.
