Graduation thesis and exam 

Every student will choose the subject of the thesis according to the suggestions of a supervisor. 

The thesis consists of an academic essay which tests the candidate’s ability to explore and present original results and apply the knowledge and methodologies acquired during the program. All students must defend their master’s thesis. Such a defense consists of an oral presentation and answering questions from a Committee.  

Orientation to incoming students

The Program organises various incoming orientation events jointly coordinated by the  Department,  the Polythechnical and Basic Science School (PBSS) and the University of Naples Federico II. The calendar can be found on the websites www.orientamento.unina.it   and www.scuolapsb.unina.it. Every year the “Magistrali@SPSB” event is organised in which the program of the master’s degrees and professional outlets are presented. Youtube recordings of these events are always available. In the January-September period, the “Futuri Studenti” series of events is held online, whose access instructions can be found at the links above, and where it is possible to interact with teachers to receive specific information on the various courses and professional outlets. In the period March-July, “Open Days” are organized to visit facilities in person or attend specific events. The dates of these activities are provided during the “Porte Aperte” day. A video presentation of the Program is available at the link:

Tutoring and counseling 

The Program organizes tutoring and counseling events, jointly with the Department’s courses of study and PBSS. These initiatives have the task of guiding and assisting students throughout their studies. The Course of Study has a well-established tutoring system aimed at providing support activities to students, collecting information from students on general or personal difficulties, disservices or collaborating with the Sinapsi centre. For contact details see the links: https://www.orientamento.unina.it/studenti-iscritti/, https://www.sinapsi.unina.it/home  

Career orientation and job placement

The Program organizes career orientation and job placement events, jointly with the  Department,  PBSS and the University of Naples Federico II.  A list of opportunities for postgraduate internships and job offers is available at www.orientamento.unina.it.  In addition, the PBSS runs a dynamic job placement platform at www.jobservice.unina.it.  The platform is aimed at students and companies to facilitate the matching of supply and demand. In addition, the Program participates in the “Career Day@SPSB” event. During this event, students and graduates have the opportunity to learn more about the production domains of individual companies and the job profiles on offer. Specific soft-skills training events are organised periodically. The calendar of the events are at the links:
