Computer Science & Information Systems-Subject 2026-250
Delivered in English and blended, this degree course provides a transversal training in the main areas of Information Engineering such as automation, electronics, computer science and telecommunications and a solid preparation in physical-mathematical subjects. Distinctly multidisciplinary, the course is also characterized by a strong methodological approach that is fundamental in the analysis of problems in the different areas of IE. Those who graduate in Information Engineering acquire critical analysis and design skills, as well as problem solving, and will be able to find employment in all work areas related to the main sectors of IE, in private companies, in the public administration, but also in the freelance profession also in an international context.
The degree course (CdS) in Information Engineering, which will be entirely delivered in English, provides a transversal training, i.e. broad-spectrum, in the main areas of Information Engineering (IE) such as automation, electronics, computer science and telecommunications. The course also offers a solid preparation on the physical-mathematical subjects that constitute the fundamentals of IE. In contrast to the majority of first-level degree courses in the L8 sector, which offer in-depth courses focused on only one of the disciplines mentioned above, this CdS is distinguished by a strong multidisciplinary character in the different areas of IE and is also characterized by a strong methodological approach, which means that students will learn systematic and structured methods to analyze problems in the different areas of IE.

At the end of the course, graduates will have acquired analytical and design skills, and all the knowledge necessary to understand and use the techniques and tools used in the most innovative areas of IE. Graduates will also have acquired critical analysis and problem-solving skills, and will be able to deal with problems in the context of IE by developing models and proposing appropriate solutions

Main employment and professional opportunities
The typical employment opportunities for those who acquire a bachelor's degree in Information Engineering are made up of all the work areas related to the main sectors of IE, in accordance with the wide range of skills acquired through a transversal and multidisciplinary preparation. Graduates can therefore find employment in private companies operating in the fields of electronics, telecommunications, information technology, measurement instrumentation, the automotive industry and industrial automation. These companies are typically characterized by strong flexibility and dynamism, to adapt to the demands of increasingly global and constantly evolving markets. With graduates in Information Engineering, these companies find an answer to the demand for young personnel, with the flexibility and broad skills that make them easily employed in the production field. In the same way, the ubiquity of IE applications is such that those who obtain the degree will also be able to find employment in the public administration. The strong international connotation of the CdS will open up a wider market to graduates both nationally and internationally. Finally, by obtaining the professional qualification and enrolment in Section B of the Professional Order of Engineers in the Information sector, those who graduate will also be able to carry out the freelance profession, providing their skills on assignment to various subjects, private and public.

Possible continuation of the course of study
Information Engineering, a CdS that programmatically offers a methodological, generalist/multidisciplinary and international approach, is also the most appropriate solution for the needs of those who want to acquire a very wide spectrum of fundamental knowledge in the field of IE and postpone a possible specialization to a Master's Degree. This will be possible because the CdS will be structured to provide a preparation, as well as broad-spectrum, also at a high level, which will allow in particular access to all the Master's Degree Courses in the information area of the DEI: Computer Engineering, Control System Engineering, Electronic Engineering and ICT for Internet and Multimedia, and Bioengineering. In the same way, graduates in Information Engineering will be able to successfully take a course in other universities, national or international. Finally, as demonstrated by the ten-year experience of the Information Engineering Course, broad-spectrum bachelor's degree graduates with solid methodological bases are able to develop, after a master's degree, professional figures with specific peculiarities: broad vision, flexibility and ability to adapt to changing technology, which will make them more capable of progressing in the world of work and also facing research doctorates.
