Lista degli esami

Learning path

  • The Master’s Degree (“Corso di Laurea Magistrale” in Italian) in “ICT and Internet Engineering” includes courses and other formative activities for a total of 120 credits (“CFU”). The programme includes 4 mandatory courses respectively in the areas of telecommunications, mobile networks, remote sensing and software engineering. Other courses are mainly chosen by the student but still subject to approval by the course advisory board. Final thesis provides 18 credits

  • During the first year the students will explore the fundamental concepts of telecommunications, mobile networks, remote sensing and software engineering.

    In the second year, they will explore many other concepts from different areas of interest, depending on the study plan decided by each student and their selection of optional courses.

  • Some of the possible study plans to choose from are Cybersecurity, Internet of Things and Cloud, Space Integrated Systems, Sensing Systems and Connectivity Infrastructures.

    Many of the courses will include some laboratories with practical experiences where students can learn to put what they have studied into practice and in addition, they will have to opportunity to participate in several seminars to enrich their knowledge even more.

All the different aspects of ICT will be covered in order to offer a rapid adaptation to the new professional and formative needs.

Balancing theory and practice

Many subjects have a practical part in laboratories.
