About this program
MSc in Engineering Physics
The main educational objective of this Laurea Magistrale (equivalent to Master of Science) program is to prepare professionals with a sound expertise in science and an engineering attitude. A Physical Engineer is able to “produce” innovation both in the industrial environment as well as in basic research. He is highly competitive in the global market, with particular reference to the sectors where solid-state physics, optics, photonics and nanotechnologies are developed and routinely employed. More specifically, the Physical Engineer can approach all the industries and research labs based on advanced technologies, which may include material science, lasers, photonics devices, biomedical optics, etc. The program has three possible finalizations: Nano-optics and Photonics; Nano and Physical Technologies; Semiconductor nanotechnologies.
Admission requirements
A Bachelor Degree in Engineering Physics, in Industrial Engineering or Information Engineering is required for application. The Committee will evaluate students with a different background case by case.
Students With A University Qualification Obtained Outside Italy
Applicants to Master of Science programs are required to have a Bachelor Degree or be in the process of completing a Bachelor Degree. Admitted applicants will have to graduate before the enrollment.
Your undergraduate level program must contain subjects closely related to the MSc program you are applying to.
An English Or Italian Language Proficiency Certificate
If your bachelor Degree was taught in English, you may upload a document certified by your university attesting the teaching language instead of the language certificate.
Country-Specific Requirements Related To Your Degree
If you studied in one of the countries listed in the institute wesbite, please read carefully the information and the details about the documents to be provided. If the country where you have completed/are studying your Bachelor Degree is not listed in the institute website then there is no Country-specific requirements.
The requirements (minimum GPA included) are strict, and no exceptions will be considered.
Foreign Students With A University Qualification Obtained In Italy
If you have an Italian university qualification you may be admitted to graduate Degree courses under the same conditions as Italian students.

Career paths
The graduate in Engineering Physics can approach and find employment opportunities in all the sectors in which high tech systems are designed and developed, such as laser manufacturers or system integrators based on photonics devices, industries working on new materials, vacuum technologies or biomedical devices, just to mention few examples. The Physical Engineer can therefore find employment in companies operating in material science and optical technologies. Moreover, the graduates in Engineering Physics can work in strategic consultancy companies or can continue their Academic Education with a PhD Program toward a professional career in academic or industrial research.
