- Before the end of the first year, students are required to pass a foreign language translation exam (preferably, French, German, and Italian) and an image identification exam. For the concentration in Egyptian art and archaeology, an examination in Middle Egyptian is also required.
- The fourth semester is dedicated to writing the thesis, which is researched and written over a period of approximately three months with full supervision from the student's faculty advisor. The thesis forms a complete induction into primary research methods and all aspects of the presentation of research. The topic generally arises from the previous three terms of study.
