Educational Objectives and Typical Competencies

The general objective of the Bachelor’s Degree Program is to train technicians with a solid foundation of knowledge and broad-based engineering training in the design and production of devices and systems across various sectors of Information Engineering. Areas of expertise include the design and implementation of electronic devices, electronic measurement instrumentation, electronic control and automation systems, and telecommunications networks; the management of production technologies for telecommunications facilities; and the analysis, modeling, transmission, and interpretation of information using established methodologies. The program is divided into two tracks:

Electronics and Instrumentation Track

The target profile is that of a professional capable of working in the development, production, and maintenance of electronic components and systems, which constitute the equipment used in both information technology applications and industrial electronics and industrial automation applications.

Telecommunications Track

The target profile is that of a professional who can design and implement local telecommunications networks, understands the architectures of modern metropolitan and geographic networks, is familiar with technological solutions for information communication and telecommunications services, and can develop a system for multimedia processing and communication. Career Opportunities Given their skills, graduates with a degree in Electronic and Telecommunications Engineering can find career opportunities in companies in the following sectors: the production of hardware and software components and systems; the manufacturing of machines using electronic controls; plant automation; telecommunications services; and audio and video processing, as well as information technology in general—in companies ranging from small to medium-sized and large enterprises.

Required Qualifications for Admission

To be admitted to the degree program in Electronic and Telecommunications Engineering, applicants must hold a five-year upper-secondary school diploma or another academic qualification obtained abroad that is recognized as equivalent under current regulations.

Admission of international students to the degree program is governed by the relevant ministerial regulations. These regulations also establish the procedures for assessing proficiency in the Italian language, where such assessment is required, and the conditions for exemption.

To be admitted to the Electronic and Telecommunications Engineering degree program, applicants must possess or acquire an adequate level of foundational knowledge, which will be assessed through a mandatory multiple-choice self-assessment test.

The schedule and procedures for taking the test are available on the University portal.

Failure to pass the test does not preclude either enrollment in the degree program or the ability to take course exams. Students who receive an insufficient score will be assigned additional academic requirements (OFA) as determined by the Degree Program Council. The procedures for fulfilling these OFA requirements are defined by the Degree Program Council and made available on the University portal along with information on any educational initiatives organized to support the students in question.

New Student Orientation

The degree program participates in new student orientation and ongoing academic advising initiatives, which are managed at both the macro-area and University levels and are described on the dedicated page of the University portal, which also provides access to the specific initiatives for each macro-area. These initiatives are coordinated by a working group consisting of the Rector’s Delegate for Orientation, the Departmental Delegates for Orientation, and staff from a dedicated organizational unit. The design and delivery of orientation activities, developed by this specific organizational unit, are certified according to the UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 standard.

The degree program also has its own academic advising committee, which prospective students can contact for specific needs or information. With regard to ongoing academic advising, this committee provides both individual assistance on specific issues (such as the development of personalized study plans) and organizes in-class advising sessions to present the program offerings and guide students in their curricular choices.

Regular activities, news, and the latest initiatives can be found on the dedicated page of the University’s website.
