Latin term or phrase: decurialium
.......de professorum decurialium sententia, summa cum laude probatus est........

I can't find the meaning of decurialium, it only appears as 2 words on the web. Is it something like "group"?
Thanks.

Explanation:
It looks like the plural genitive (like professorum) of decurialis = belonging to a decuria. A decuria can be a corporation, any constituted body. Lewis & Short give "division, company, class, association, club" for decuria.
Hope this helps.
