Introduction
The Bachelor’s degree provides in-depth training in both the physical/mathematical fundamentals and in the disciplines characterizing information engineering: control systems, electronics, telecommunications, computer science, and bioengineering. The educational objectives are distinguished by a methodological and multidisciplinary training approach which enables to acquire skills in information and communication technologies (ICT) based on a solid physical/mathematical background.
At first, the program offers fundamental and cross-cutting theoretical course units. As students progress, specializing courses, including high-tech equipped laboratory units, can be chosen within a large list, to create personal, localized, or broad-spectrum training.

Career opportunities
This Bachelor’s degree grants access to all Master’s degree programs in the area of ICT, in Italy and abroad. Three Master’s degrees (Computer Engineering, Control Systems Engineering, ICT for Internet and Multimedia) are also offered, in English, by the same Department. As well, graduates can find professional employment in all areas of ICT, in enterprises, or in the public sector.
Entry qualification
Secondary Studies diploma (or equivalent)
English TOLC-I
The entry qualification documents are accepted in the following languages: English / Italian.
You can often get a suitable transcript from your school. If this is not the case, you will need official translations along with verified copies of the original.
You must take the original entry qualification documents with you when you finally go to university.
If you are admitted to the degree course, you will have to submit other documents including original and translated/legalized copies of your previous qualifications, etc. No legalized documents are required at the application stage.
