Assessment methods

The exam consists of an oral examination designed to assess the knowledge acquired by the student and his ability to critical reconstruction of the matter also through the use of an appropriate legal language.

The course of Social Security Law is part of two Integrated Courses:

- of the Integrated Course in Labour And Social Security Law (curriculum Sociology and Social Research);

- of the Integrated Course in Social Security And Criminal Law (curriculum Social Work).

Each of the two Courses of which the two Integrated Courses are composed has its own program, its own cycle of lessons and its own exam test with an evaluation expressed in thirtieths.

The final mark of the Integrated Course is unique, is recorded by the teacher of Social security law and is the result of the average of the marks obtained in the two courses (rounded down for fractions of voting ranging between 0.1 and 0.4 and rounded up for fractions of vote between 0.5 and 0.9).

The grades for the single courses of the Integrated course are kept for two academic years.
