The Integrated Degree Programme in Dentistry structures its teaching activities through lectures, exercises, free-choice courses and other methods established by the degree programme regulations.
The Integrated Degree Programme may be divided into curricula that will be specified in the degree programme regulations.
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 ECTS, including those relating to the final examination. After passing the final degree examination, the student obtains a degree in Dentistry.
The competent Degree Programme Board 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-terms (semesters, quarters or other periodisations), indicating which courses foresee supplementary teaching activities;
- the attribution of ECTS to the various teaching and training activities;
- the criteria and procedures for the recognition, without prejudice to the minimum quota recognised pursuant to the regulatory provisions in force, of the greatest possible number of ECTS already acquired by the student in previous degree programmes.
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 a pass mark may also be required.
