Assessment of adequacy of the Applicants’ prior preparation

Assessment of adequacy of the Applicants’ prior preparation

Admission to the Programme shall be granted on condition the prior preparation is considered satisfactory.

1) For students holding a first cycle-degree, the adequacy of the academic preparation is met by the following requirements, which must be held according to the deadlines, rules and regulations set out yearly by the relevant University’s Office:

  • Graduation mark no lower than 92/110 (graduates until the A.Y. 2011/2012 should hold a graduation mark no lower than 85/110);
  • having earned at least 36 credits in the following SSD MAT/02, MAT/03, MAT/05, MAT/06, MAT/07, MAT/08, FIS/01, FIS/03.

2) For graduating students, the adequacy of the academic preparation is met by all the following requirements, which must be held according to the deadlines, rules and regulations set out yearly by the relevant University’s Office:

  • Having earned at least 159 ECTS to which a mark has been given (i.e. not Pass/Fail exam);
  • having a CPGA no lower than 26/30;
  • having earned at least 36 ECTS in the following SSD MAT/02, MAT/03, MAT/05, MAT/06, MAT/07, MAT/08, FIS/01, FIS/03;
  • having earned at least 6 ECTS in one of the following SSD:
  • ING-IND/31
  • ING-IND/32
  • ING-IND/33
  • ING-INF/07

Criteria set forth in this paragraph shall also be applicable to those holding a foreign qualification, as long as it is deemed adequate by the Master Degree Board and the following conditions are met:

-   The graduation mark/CGPA can be converted into a 110-scale base (final mark’s scale in the Italian Higher Education System), or 30 scaled-base for graduating students.

    • Each exam can be associated with a scientific field and a credit system (similar to the ECTS scale).

    However, if the applicant’s foreign qualification is not comparable to the Italian Higher Education System, the Master Degree Evaluation Board will assess the transcript of records and evaluate the adequacy of the applicant’s preparation on a case-by-case basis.

     

    Should the aforementioned conditions be not fulfilled (fully or in part), the academic preparation is not considered adequate. Nevertheless - under extraordinary and duly proven circumstances - the Master Degree Board may embark on a case-by-case evaluation, which will be however based on the graduation mark/CGPA and the academic records.

    Such a case-by-case evaluation will result in an irrevocable decision concerning the admission to the Programme.

     

    Regarding language skills:

    • As for the track Ingegneria dell’Energia Elettrica (delivered in Italian), the adequacy of personal preparation for admission to the Programme also includes knowledge of English at level B-1 (according to the CEFR). Such proficiency will be proved at the moment of the Degree’s B-2 test.
    • As for the track Electrical Engineering (delivered in English), the adequacy of personal preparation for admission to the Programme also includes knowledge of English at level B-2 or higher (according to the CEFR). The verification is deemed to be satisfied for students with appropriate linguistic certification (such as TOEFL, IELTS, FCE, Cambridge Esol).  Such a certification constitutes a compulsory admission requirement and must be enclosed to the application, in order to be assessed by the Master Degree Board.
