To graduate, it is necessary to submit the application for graduation on Uniweb within the deadlines established for each graduation period.

The procedure involves several steps and requires the approval of the title of the dissertation by the supervisor and the supervisor. In order to graduate, moreover, it is necessary to have taken all the exams required by one's study plan at least fifteen days before the start of the graduation session, to be up to date with the payment of fees and to respect the dates and methods of delivery of the degree dissertation. Failure to pay the revenue stamp relating to the graduation application prevents the recording of the progress assessments.

Subsequently, within the deadlines established by the department, it is necessary to upload the final paper file to Uniweb. For any need in reference to this aspect, please contact the department's teaching secretariat.

Guidelines Upload final document for the final assessment.

Cancel dissertation data:  students who, before the closing of the graduation application window, wish to cancel the dissertation data previously entered, can request it at conseguimentotitolo.studenti@unipd.it

Change title: the supervisor can update the title of the dissertation (also in the English version) within his Uniweb, on his page of assigned graduates. Coordinate with the supervisor as the change can only be made before the approval of the final annex (PDF).

Change supervisor: The new supervisor must write to conseguimentotitolo.studenti@unipd.it indicating the need to take over from the old supervisor, possibly the updated dissertation title (also the English version) and the graduating student's matriculation number.

Please note: it is not possible to move on to the previous session.

Switch to the next period: to move to the next period, however, it is necessary to cancel the application submitted for the previous one in Uniweb and submit a new one within the relevant deadlines. If no changes need to be made to the title/supervisor, approval remains from the previous instance. However, it will be necessary to pay the new 16 euro bill.
