For admission to the Master's Degree Course in Electronics Engineering it is necessary to hold one of the following degrees
obtained at an Italian university, or another qualification obtained abroad and deemed equivalent to them:
Bachelor's Degree or three-year University Diploma, Specialist Degree or Master's Degree, pursuant to DM 509/1999 or DM
270/2004, five-year degree (prior to DM 509/1999).
The knowledge required for access is, in addition to that relating to the basic subjects (Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science)
typical of Engineering, those characterising Information Engineering.

In particular, for candidates with an Italian qualification, the curricular requirements for admission are met by
possession of at least 44 CFU acquired, in any university course, in the disciplinary scientific sectors listed below
INF/01, MAT/XX, FIS/XX, ING-INF/XX, ING-IND/31, ING-IND/32, ING-IND/33.
In particular, the possession of at least 20 CFU is required in the following disciplinary scientific sectors of the core subjects:
MAT/XX, FIS/XX and at least 24 CFUs obtained in the disciplinary scientific sectors propaedeutic or related to electrical engineering: ING-INF/XX, INF/01, ING-IND/31, ING-IND/32, ING-IND/33.
The more detailed distribution of the CFUs between the above-mentioned sectors and the methods for verifying possession of the requirements are
defined in detail in the Course Regulations.
The curricular requirements of candidates with a foreign qualification necessary for admission will be assessed by a
commission appointed by the Study Course Council through an analysis of the curriculum of studies submitted.
A special Commission assesses the need for possible curricular integrations, providing, in the case of courses that are not
not perfectly coherent with the requirements, a supplementary course which must in any case be completed before the verification
of personal preparation.
Verification of personal preparation is compulsory for enrolment in the course and is carried out by a special
committee on the basis of specific procedures described in detail in the Course Regulations. In the
personal preparation will be checked for possession of adequate language skills in English, at least equivalent to level B2 of the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference).

In accordance with the provisions of the degree programme, students wishing to enrol must
prior possession of appropriate curricular requirements and personal background.
The curriculum requirements are:
at least 44 CFU in total acquired with a minimum number of CFU per SSD collected in the following groups:
- ING-INF/XX, INF/01, ING-IND/31, ING-IND/32, ING-IND/33 = 24 cfu
- MAT/XX, FIS/XX= 20 cfu
For holders of a foreign qualification obtained abroad, admission to the master's degree is
conditional on the evaluation of the academic curriculum.
Possession of the curricular requirements is verified by a special Commission that assesses the individual student's career and the need for any curricular integrations, providing, in the case of previous courses that are not perfectly coherent for the acquisition of the required knowledge, an integrative course that must in any case be completed before the personal preparation is verified.
Adequate initial preparation means:
- students with an Italian degree: the student must have obtained a degree mark of no less than 85/110;
- students with a foreign qualification: a bachelor's degree or at least a three-year degree or other recognised qualification
eligible and obtained in a non-EU country must result in a grade above 3/4 of the maximum mark. Non-EU students who have not yet obtained their degree are required to have an average of examinations above 3/4 of the maximum mark.

Learning Objectives
The Master's degree programme in Electronics Engineering aims to provide skills related to the design, the
realisation, validation and management of devices, components, electronic and photonic systems needed to support and promote the rapid evolution of information generation, transformation and transmission systems (ICT - Information and Communication Technology) and energy (renewable sources, green and smart mobility).
Its training aims include learning the theoretical foundations, technologies and design methodologies capable of meeting the present and future demands of the Information Society; more specifically, to enable the conception, development and realisation of technically sound products, from the point of view of both feasibility and appropriateness with respect to the rapid evolution of electronic engineering and industrial and information technologies in which electronics is finding ever wider applications.
In order to guarantee the achievement of these objectives, the didactic organisation envisages that the theoretical training is accompanied by design and validation workshop activities, aimed at completing the acquisition of specific knowledge and skills, developing active and proactive participation in group activities, as well as the capacity for autonomous processing and critical analysis of the results. The preparation of the final thesis completes the training. In it, the student must demonstrate that he/she has acquired an adequate level of decision-making autonomy and design capacity in innovative technological fields and employing the most advanced theoretical and technological tools.
The knowledge and skills acquired in the Master's Degree in Electronics Engineering allow access to PhD courses, the aim of which is to train highly qualified personnel to carry out research and innovation activities in both public and private structures.

5) Storage production and propulsion systems:
Aimed at providing design methods for electric propulsion systems, electric energy conversion and storage both in the field of electric mobility and the development of renewable energy sources.

The Master's Degree programme in Electronics Engineering is structured to provide, on the one hand, an in-depth preparation in the fields characterising the class of Master's Degrees in Electronics Engineering, and, on the other hand, to ensure a high degree of flexibility and multidisciplinarity in order to allow students to delve into the topics of greatest interest.
The basic preparation is concentrated at the beginning of the course and focuses on the design methodologies of complex systems, circuits and advanced components and their application in the various industrial sectors. Starting from the first year, the possibility is given to deepen specific topics, in any case consistent with the objectives specified above, through specialised teaching in the characterising SSDs. The course includes an adequate number of CFUs from related sectors in both the information and industrial area, which guarantee the student a multidisciplinary education and the ability to interact with other engineering sectors and fields of application of electronics.
On top of the necessary basic training, customised pathways can then be grafted that allow for training oriented towards entry into the world of work as well as the possible continuation of studies in research doctorates. It is envisaged to carry out training apprenticeships or, in any case, to carry out other training activities useful for entry into the world of work.
In order to make it easier for the Master's degree programme student to select courses, a number of training paths are suggested.

The Master's Degree programme in Electronics Engineering awards the final degree to students who have achieved the following results
expected learning described in line with the system of university degree descriptors adopted in the
European (Dublin Descriptors), with the qualifying educational objectives of the Engineering Degree Class
Electronics, as well as with the above-mentioned specific training objectives.

The Master's Degree programme in Electronics Engineering awards the final degree to students who are able to
- interact effectively with both non-specialists and specialists from different application areas in order to understand their specific needs in the realisation of complex systems;
