Professional profiles

Common to the various profiles...

Regardless of the chosen pathway, the Master's degree graduate in Robotics, Automation and Electrical Engineering, also thanks to his or her interdisciplinary preparation, possesses the requisites of an expert in the study, design, development, production, industrialisation and management of complex and/or innovative systems with a high technological content and is able to face the resolution of complex problems both independently and by effectively interacting with professional figures with different backgrounds.
In addition, the Master's Degree Course in Robotics, Automation and Electrical Engineering provides access to the qualifying examination for the practice of the profession of Engineer in Section A (holders of a Master's or five-year single-cycle degree) in both the Information Engineering and Industrial Engineering sectors. Possible outlets for the Degree Course also include the two levels of higher education, i.e. the second-level master's degree and the PhD.
