Assessment is by examination, in accordance with the regulations in force.

Three written examinations (one per unit) are sat at the end of the academic year. The qualification is awarded to students who have taken and achieved a pass mark in all three examinations. Successful completion of a unit leads to the awarding of the corresponding European credits. The credits for the unit are awarded even in case of a compensated pass.

There are two examination sessions per year, scheduled so as not to overlap with the Licence and Master 1 examination periods. Students who pass their examinations in the first session may not sit them again in the second session; however, those who did not achieve the pass mark or were absent in one or more examinations in the first session may sit these examinations in the second session. Marks below the pass mark achieved in the first session are not carried forward to the second session.
