Official Program Description

The Master of Science in Communication Engineering is taught and examined entirely in English. Communication Engineering is a two-year graduate course tailored to those aspiring to work in an advanced engineering field at an international level.

Communication Engineering offers Italian and international students a unique opportunity. First of all, it provides sound knowledge and methodology in an area which is experiencing an impressive technological innovation and is likely to continue this trend for many years to come. Furthermore, it allows international students to improve their command of the English language in a professional context.

All lectures and seminars are held in English, so that students may practice the language in its technical terminology while learning about current technology. Many scientific studies attest the value of such a Content and Language Integrated Learning. Communication Engineering offers the chance to work towards an advanced qualification in Communication Engineering and also acquire advanced language skills throughout the two-year course.... [-]

This Master of Science is designed to provide students with the analytical competencies and problem-solving skills to understand the mechanisms and to master the processes through which innovative ideas are developed and turned into market applications.

Students attend a challenging interdisciplinary program that blendsstrategic, managerial, organizational and economic approachesin order to analyze innovation and technology, both at firm and market levels (including the evaluation of legal implications).

We aim to develop the analytical skillsrequired to understand the dynamics of technology within and across organizations; the decision-making abilities to turn technological opportunities into new ideas; and the problem-solving attitude to make successful innovations out of new ideas.... [-]

This MSc is designed for students having a strong bent for Computational, Statistical, and Mathematical Sciences and a genuine interest in working with data. Students will be taught cutting-edge techniques for extracting impactful information from large data sets and for effectively communicating them in order to influence the strategic decisions of the organizations where they will work.

The program is structured into two tracks sharing a modern quantitative core: Data Science and Business Analytics. They specifically pursue, to different extents, the following qualifying goals:

The course offers advanced education in Information and Communications Technology (ICT), with special reference to signal processing (voice, video, data, and multimedia), telecommunications systems, networks and networking applications. The program focuses on providing methodological and advanced design skills to become high-level professionals in all areas of Telecommunications Engineering.

The course offers lectures (in English), laboratories, guided visits to companies and seminars. The final thesis project gives students the possibility of developing further competence in the framework of high-level research labs.

Design, implementation, and presentation of commercial tenders, sales, technical assistance and customer care, in advanced ICT technology, with specific reference to systems, networks and applications development.... [-]

The Master of Science in Computer Science is centered on Data Science & Engineering.

The backbone of the program is constituted by three core units on advanced data management, machine learning, and high-performance computing. Leveraging on the expertise of our faculty, the rest of the program is organized in four tracks: Business Intelligence, Health & Life Sciences, Pervasive Computing, and Visual Computing.

The program blends traditional classes with:

Robotics Engineering is the local track of the Emaro+ double degree international Master. Emaro+ students attend each year in a different European university; local students attend at UNIGE the whole single degree. The track, totally in English, has a structure compliant with international standards: continuous assessment, few exam sessions, laboratory activity, one full semester thesis. Students mobility abroad, as well as achieving the degree in two years are encouraged.

Robotics Engineering uses the EMARO+ philosophy of learning through reflection on doing, as a paradigm complementary to the traditional didactic learning. Theoretical study is interleaved with laboratory practical and experimental work. A group project course (developing lab projects by teams of students) is mandatory in the first year. The Master Thesis work spans over a full semester; some theses can be carried out in industry or in foreign research institutions.... [-]

The objective of the Space Engineering MSc is to educate highly skilled professionals, qualified to develop and manage technical activities related to research and design in the space sector. Space Engineering graduates have all the competencies to fully develop activities related to the design, technical analysis and verification of a space mission.

Within these activities, in particular, graduates from Politecnico di Milano can develop specific skills in the areas of mission analysis, thermal and structural design of space components, design of the space propulsion and power generation system, design of the orbit and attitude control systems, space systems integration and testing. ...
