To determine the degree mark at the end of the exam, the Board first evaluates the work done for the dissertation and its presentation assigning a mark out of 30. Then the Board determines the degree mark using the following procedure:

the weighted average is calculated of all the marks out of 30 obtained in training activities, including the mark just obtained for the dissertation, using the number of credits as weighting factor;

the weighted average is transformed into a fraction of 110;

this fraction is multiplied by a coefficient associated with the duration of the student's academic career (1.05 within 2 years; 1.02 greater than 2 years);

to this is added the product of 0.05 times the number of credits attained “con lode” (with praise);

the result of this is then approximated to the closest integer;

if the mark so obtained is at least 113, the committee may assign the label “lode”, but only if they unanimously agree.

This Master Degree grade awarding method will be considered up to the year 2028.
