Modalità di verifica e valutazione dell'apprendimento

Student learning will be checked at the end of the course with an [oral/written exam, qui ognuno specifica la propria modalità].

The final mark will be calculated as the weighted mean (based on CFUs) of the marks obtained in all the courses of FRONTIERS IN MEDICAL RESEARCH (I.C.).

A mark above or equal to 18/30 in each module of the Integrated Course is required to obtain the final assessment.
