About the programme

The educational path ostarts with the consolidation of the foundational topics in the area, in particular digital signal processing, networking and recognition systems. 

Next, students can choose among four different curricula:

1. Communications Engineering, in the area of communication systems and telecommunications networks and their applications
2. Computer Engineering, i.e. information acquisition, processing, and learning, distributed services and computing, data protection and their applications
3. Electronic Engineering, in the field of analog and digital electronics, large scale and computing architectures, sensors design and networking
4. Biomedical Engineering, in the areas of biomedical engineering, from the foundational aspects in bioengineering and biomedical signal processing to the integration with information systems and the interaction with applications as robotis and sport technologies.

Students will experience innovative teaching paradigms and will be provided with an all round perspective of the rich research and industrial context in which the acquired knowledge can be applied. 

The training path blends lectures and laboratory activities for a hands-on application of the theoretical aspects, also promoting the participation of companies and industries which support projects, give seminars and offer company internships.
This will favor the ability of students to communicate, improving autonomous learning, and experiencing real-world problems.

Teaching activities include frontal lectures, laboratory activities, thematic seminars and internship. The educational method is also devoted to challenge-based learning, as well as to a renewed focus on soft-skills, an essential feature for a successful professional figure.

The expected results are verified through exams, evaluation of papers or softwares developed by students, evaluation of lab activities.
