 Exam

 Exam is divided in two parts:

 Written exam: manufacturing process plan
(1.5 h) and a group of questions and a test
on English terms (2 h)
 Oral exam: questions about two or three
topics

 A written exam score greater or equal to 18/30

is requested for admission to oral exam
 Exam

 Oral exam can be made:

 in the same session of the written exam or
 in the following session of the written exam

 E-learning

 Students must apply e-learning course (2015-16) in

order to:
 Download slides and other files
 Receive communications about the course

 Application to exams by: https://esami.unipi.it/esami
