About
The Course allows students to acquire solid foundations in the fields of computer engineering and electronic engineering, also in an interdisciplinary way and in synergy with the disciplines of automation, robotics, and telecommunications. Thanks to its two study tracks (curricula), Computer Science and Electronics, students can choose whether to pursue a path more focused on computer science (programming, databases, operating systems, algorithms, graphical interfaces, mobile applications, Internet fundamentals) or a path more oriented towards electronics (devices, circuits, sensors, electronic measurements, electromagnetic propagation). The choice of track differentiates the study paths from the first year of the program, and the differences between the two curricula become more pronounced in the second and third years.
An relevant component of the training is the use of various laboratories, specific or multidisciplinary, to strengthen the interaction between theoretical models and experimental and application contexts. The strong collaboration between the Course and the industry world allows students to attend company-oriented seminars and undertake internships or thesis activities in various business contexts.

Access to the Course
Enrollment
Enrollment in the Course with regular procedure are usually possible from August 3 to October 20. After this date, and until December 21st, it is still possible to register with a late procedure, subject to a small surcharge. For more details and to complete the enrollment process, please contact the student office of the Department of Engineering. Also, consult the university enrollment page for further information, including details on tax and fee reductions.
Access requirements
The required qualification for admission, as specified in Article 6, paragraph 1 of Ministerial Decree 270/2004, is a high school diploma or another qualification obtained abroad, recognized as equivalent.
To be admitted to the study program, it is mandatory to take the TOLC-I test, managed by CISIA, according to the regulations available on the following page. The purpose of the test is to assess the student's verbal comprehension and logical reasoning, as well as their knowledge of mathematics, physics, and chemistry topics common to secondary school curricula. If the test results fall below the minimum threshold established by the study program, the student can still enroll in the program with an academic deficiency; this deficiency must be resolved within the first year, according to the procedures defined by the program.
To facilitate the acquisition of the required skills, the educational structure promotes dedicated preparatory training activities (introductory courses or pre-courses), typically held in September, without excluding the possibility of additional activities throughout the year with direct interaction with secondary schools. In order to support the organization and attendance of these courses, the educational structure may establish rules for pre-registration. More details about the pre-courses and the relative calendars can be found at the pre-course page.
Resources for students
Below are some links to useful information for students of the Course (select the item to view the information).
Academic Regulation and study plan
The Academic Regulations is an official document that defines the rules of the degree course. The Regulations also include the educational offer, which is the study plan (also called Manifesto of Studies). Students interested in consulting only the study plan will find a dedicated link below (this study plan coincides with the one reported in the Curricula section of this page.)
Lessons and exams
Below are the links to the calendars for lessons and exams.

Thesis and graduation calendars
The final degree exam consists of the discussion of an original thesis, prepared by the student under the supervision of a faculty advisor and any co-advisors. All information related to the thesis, the graduation application, and the graduation session calendars can be found at the links provided below.
International mobility
The student has the opportunity to complete part of their educational path abroad, including for the purpose of an internship or thesis. International mobility is mainly supported by the EU Erasmus+ program. All information is available at the following link.
