during his/her assigned period of studies Explanation: 'he/she has completed the curriculum prescribed for a Baccalaureate during his/her assigned period of studies' 'Definitum' is the perfect passive participle of 'defiinire', 'to limit, bound, assign, appoint'. 'Praestituum' is clearly a typo for 'praestitutum', the perfect passive participle of 'praestituere', 'to prescribe, appoint beforehand'. The third person possessive adjective is regularly omitted in Latin when it is implied in the context. Hence I translate 'his/her assigned period, etc.' instead of employing an article. Cf. Allen & Greenough, New Latin Grammar, §302, c. |
