Master in Computer Engineering

The learning outcomes are achieved by coupling a solid theoretical, methodological and technological background, on the one side, with strong and effective operating skills, on the other. Such skills derive both from practical experiences in courses and from targeted project activities, which constitute an essential part of the study programme. The programme aims to train professionals able to take part in all activities concerning the development of complex computer systems, processes and services in the specific field of computer engineering and more generally in any other context in which information technologies play an important role. For this purpose, the degree programme provides knowledge and competencies in a wide number of subjects within an integrated framework – from programming languages and computational paradigms, to software design, computer systems architecture, advanced operating systems, information systems and big data, distributed and autonomous systems, computer networks and cloud computing, IT security, artificial intelligence, real-time processing and control systems – completed with topics about the organisation, management and optimisation of technological innovation processes. The degree programme intentionally leaves broad space for customisation: apart from the few mandatory courses in the fields of operational and management research and optimisation of technological innovation processes, students have a wide choice of IT subjects and application areas. In each particular subject area, students can acquire both foundational and methodological knowledge, as well as analytical and design competencies –yet maintaining all the flexibility needed to design their own path, in compliance with the learning outcomes, both vertically or in a multidisciplinary, broader-spectrum approach.

This programme is available in Italian.
