Overview

The Bachelor’s degree provides in-depth training in both the physical/mathematical fundamentals and in the disciplines characterising information engineering: control systems, electronics, telecommunications and computer science. The educational objectives are distinguished by a methodological and multidisciplinary training approach which enables to acquire skills in information and communication technologies (ICT) based on a solid physical/mathematical background.
At first, the programme offers fundamental and cross-cutting theoretical course units. As students progress, specialising courses, including high-tech equipped laboratory units, can be chosen within a large list, to create personal, focalised or broad-spectrum training.
